Distance Learning Art: Name Design

Here is a great project for the first week or day of school. I put up these directions in my Google classrooms for my students and they completed them in their own time, asynchronously.

Colorful name design illustration with playful lettering and images of art supplies, stars, a rainbow, and a dog.
Notebook page displaying "Marcia" in bubble letters. Instructions ask to create a Name Design with your name in block or bubble letters vertically, perfect for Distance Learning or Art class activities.
A notebook page with the name "Marcia" surrounded by artistic drawings of ice cream, a dog, a rainbow, a palette, and stars.
Colorful, decorated letters spelling "MARCIA," with art items, a rainbow, an ice cream, and a dog.

Here is my example of a Name Design NOT using block letters if that is too difficult for your students.

Colorful drawing of the name 'Marcia' with a dog, hamster, ice cream cone, and star on a white background.

Here is a book I read to go along with this project.

  1. This is a great lesson. I have been struggling with getting started with an online lesson. I appreciate you sharing your content as we all get started with this. You’ve inspired me to just jump in.

  3. I really love this idea! I think it is a great way for students to create works of art that are unique to themselves. The final product can be so fun to look at, seeing how each student thought of different ways to fill the page. This is a great way to encourage self-expression!
