happypamama Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 We just started using Artistic Pursuits with our fifth grader. Beyond that, these are some of the books we have around where she can get ideas: The Children's Year 50 Things to Make and Do 501 Fun to Make Family Crafts Fairy Things to Stitch and Sew Earthways: Simple Environmental Activities Felt Wee Folk several books by MaryAnn F. Kohl The Nature Corner books by David King that have lots of historic crafts Felicity's Craft book -- and others based on the historic American Girl books My fifth grader loves to draw, and she also likes traditional crafts like sewing and weaving.

mytwomonkeys Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 if you aren't looking for an art curriculum, pinterest has a lot of great ideas. you can just google "5th grade art pinterest" and a ton of boards will come up. here's my art board. i use these ideas for my kids and myself:) i also have some fun holiday pins and a DIY craft board with some ideas a 5th grader may like.
