Product Description

This middle or high school shading worksheet art activity will beautifully tie into your middle or high school art curriculum. It is a great skill builder and can be used for sketchbook assignments, practice drawing worksheets, or substitute teacher assignments. Learning to shade a simple shape like an egg helps isolate drawing skills and makes learning how to draw and shade simple.

This shading worksheet art lesson is easy to share digitally or in class, so it is great for distance learning, homeschooled art, or the art classroom. The worksheet contains a link to a video drawing tutorial, which is great for when students are absent, miss a demonstration, or need a review.

Both PDF and Google Slide versions of the drawing and shading worksheet art activities are included to fit your classroom needs. They contain links and QR codes that students can scan with any device to access the video demonstration easily.

The shading worksheet art activity also includes a rubric and reference image for students to use for easy grading and self-evaluation as they draw.

The drawing video stresses layering values to create depth and dimension of the form and demonstrates proper pencil shading technique. Students are always amazed by how careful observation and shading make a simple shape appear three-dimensional.

Understanding value lays the foundation for good drawing habits and teaches students to draw what they see.
