Hey art friends! Today Austin and I are drawing a really funny Monster Truck School Bus! If we had our choice to ride in a regular school bus or a monster truck school bus to school, we’d DEFINITELY pick the monster truck version. And don’t worry, this one has seat belts!
Art Supplies:
Markers
Marker paper
Personalization ideas: Change up the bus color (blue, red, rainbow, your school’s colors), give it different tire tread patterns, add mud splashing everywhere, add flames or racing stripes, draw yourself and your friends waving out the windows, or give the bus a custom license plate with your name.
For teachers and parents: This lesson pairs beautifully with a first-day-of-school welcome activity, a transportation unit, a “how would YOU redesign the school bus” creative writing prompt, a back-to-school bulletin board, or a “what makes your ride to school special” classroom sharing exercise.
