The first few weeks are full of setting up your routines and procedures. BUT, creating should always be happening in that chaos :)
First days center around making a portfolio (keeping all of their great masterpieces somewhere). The next days are simple projects to build confidence, and in my case, to get to know all of these great kiddos. I don't mean to brag or anything (well, yes, I do), but I have some awesome budding artists!
(You can see some of my procedures and routines in prior posts)
One of the first 2nd grade and 3rd grade projects is "Identity Hands."
I take these and display them in a collaborative mural (posting on that later).
1st grade's first project was getting to know our supplies (and review). They traced the supplies and made "Supply Robots."
You can see here, the usual, "I like mine to look like my BFF next me's" Lol. The design was really cool, so how could I possibly say no :)
Aaaawwwweeee, Free Time..... The kiddos have a ton of "free time" activities, but their favorite is the color wheel puzzle.
Artist of the Month for September
With only two weeks of projects, there weren't many to pick from. But, I can already see some awesome work in the future!
I choose 2 from each grade and their work is displayed for the entire month.

Artful Aftermath
Always makes my heart smile :)
The collage bins are always interesting after creating "Stella Sculptures."
After stamping patterns with the kindergarteners.
Will be the background to our landscapes :)
