Using books in the Art Room

I try to use book readings for my K-3 grade at least twice a year, and create an art lesson around literature.

This year I have been using www.strorylineonline.net

So far I have used Sophie's Masterpiece, The Night I Followed My Dog,  Stellaluna, A Bad Case of Stripes and the Polar Express. and When Pigasso Met Mootisse.

A few examples of the art created from the book readings. I Also I do lessons with the older students with illustration, graphic art and comics and cover art.
