Elementary Art Resourses

Okay, Colleagues of the short people,

Here are a whole slew of websites and elementary art lesson plans on the web. See, not being a qualified Elementary Educator myself, I'd probably come up short if I tried to write your lessons for you. Besides, if I gave you all of my fun, short lessons on the elements of design, what would I have left to teach Seventh graders?

I will be sure to send more resources your way as I discover them through out this year. Good luck!
