SUMMER ART CHALLENGE 2015

Welcome to the Summer Art Challenge! You are invited to play along and get creative this summer.

These challenges are designed to keep the creative part of your brain playing over the summer. This is a voluntary activity, and is in no way mandatory over the summer. It is meant to be fun and inspiring! They might be fun for a rainy day or a family outing. Some of these may require adult supervision or help. Your mission if you choose to accept it is to complete as many of the challenges listed below. Prizes will be given for the levels completed!

Level 1: Complete 10 challenges Level 2: Complete 18 challenges Level 3: Complete 23 or more challenges!

Documentation is important. All challenges should be recorded with things such as a photograph, writing, a computer printout or an actual artwork. If you cannot take a picture or bring it in, have your parents/guardians sign off on you completing the task. Some of the finished work will be put on a bulletin board in the fall. Use a folder to gather items. Bring the art AND Summer Challenge Checklist into school when we return in the fall…see you then! If you would like, your parents may email me pictures of your progress during the summer: . Please also fill out your for as well.


Good Luck! ~~Mrs. Hosler
