Are you looking for some Winter Snow Sports creative inspiration for the classroom to tie in with world sporting events?
I've designed these bold graphic snowboards which can be decorated and cut out to make eye catching bookmarks and wall displays - just print them onto heavy weight paper for durability.
You can download these FREE templates below, available in both full color and outline.
I hope you have fun with them! Just click on the jpeg files.

Sport is a great topic for exploring art and design, especially in the classroom around the time of exciting world sporting events such as the Olympics.

I enjoy sharing free creative seasonal resources, please take a look around my website

I also enjoy building more detailed lesson plans and creative packs, ideal for using in the classroom or for homeschooling.
If you like the style of these bookmarks, you might like to view my brand new 52 page resource:
Winter Sports Coloring Pages, Fun Art Activities and Decor 
​This is available to download from my Teachers Pay Teachers Store for $6.50

Activities are easy to print and use, and are designed to encourage children, grades 3-7, to explore color, shape, pattern, sportswear and logo design. I have created examples using bold colors, and geometric patterns with a fun, retro 80's feel (when I was a kid!)
You'll need only basic materials such as marker pens, paints, oil pastels, scissors, glue - and a good supply of paper - and hopefully a bunch of enthusiastic children :-)

Here are some images and photographs from the pack:

I've always loved the art of collage. It's like drawing or painting, just using paper instead.

Kids will enjoy the art of 'collecting' the colours with you - from rummaging through old National Geographic magazines to recycling envelopes and packaging, it's amazing what a great selection of materials can be found for next to nothing.

The 'doing' of it is great too - quite physical - to tear up or to cut with scissors? (a bit of both works well, I think)

And then, there's the art of 'placing' and 'rearrranging' before we glue each piece down in it's final position. This can be quite contemplative, a bit like doing a jigsaw puzzle :-) 

So this is the process I used for the art activity below, a stunning, warm glowing sunset over Rio de Janeiro, featuring the world famous statue of Christ the Redeemer.

Kids of all ages can work from their imagination or from a photograph.
When your collage is finished, cut out the free silhouette (available to download below) and place it, preferably in the foreground on a 'rock' (dark torn paper)

Have fun, I'd love your feedback, Diane
