Wow! America! by Robert Neubecker is one of my favorite resources for art lessons. I love his dynamic illustrations.

Space Boy and His Dog - Penguin Random House

This picture book inspired this Space Shuttle art lesson. I created this lesson for my Kinder class but see how art teacher Hannah Millard from Highland Elementary adapted this lesson for fourth grade. I think the results are even more spectacular!

What you’ll need:

• 12″ x 18″ orange, blue, black or yellow construction paper
• 12″ x 18″ white drawing paper
• Pencil or crayon
• Tempera Paint (black, light blue, dark blue, gray, orange, white and yellow)
• Glue and scissors

The space shuttle is fun to draw.

Watch the little boys’ faces when they walk into the art room and glance at the white board. You’ll have a captivated audience in no time!
