Hi! Today I have a round-up of Name Design art projects for you.

Name projects are wonderful to do at the beginning of the year for a number of reasons. First, it is a great way to learn all your students’ names. Second, it’s a great way for students to share about themselves. You can easily tie in personal interests to name designs. Third, it’s a familiar subject matter to kids and a less intimidating way to start the year.

My Name, by Supriya Kelkar is a good book to read at the start of a name project. (Affiliate links have been used at no extra cost to you.)
