Celebrate the festive season with this engaging two-lesson Christmas art pack focused on 3D construction, painting, collage, and creative design. Students build confidence in both hands-on making and expressive visual artwork as they produce display-worthy seasonal creations.
Lesson 1: 3D Christmas Tree – Cone Sculpture
Students explore 3D shape and form by creating a cone-based Christmas tree. They develop cutting, folding, and gluing skills while constructing their sculpture. Once built, they decorate with pattern, texture, and colour, giving each tree a personal festive flair.
Lesson 2: Christmas Star Card – Painting and Decorating
Students experiment with painting techniques, brushwork, and colour contrast to create a striking star-themed background. They then assemble a simple collage to design a personal Christmas greeting card, learning about composition and visual balance.
