Van Gogh Pop-Up Project: Sunflowers and Chairs


I was looking for fun lessons to introduce students to Van Gogh. It was around the end of the school year and I wanted to give them something a bit more complicated. All students did the pop-up from first grade all the way to 5th. It was a challenge! It involved measuring with a ruler, drawing lines, cutting folding and drawing. The original inspiration came from ART with Mrs. Smith's Van Gogh Chair lesson.
