Each lesson details step-by-step directions involving easy-to-draw shapes such as circles, ovals, letter shapes and clouds to create an image. One preferred strategy is for the teacher to demonstrate the steps with students following along creating a "rough draft". This allows students to make mistakes and practice the various techniques insuring a better final product. Although each lesson stands on its own, they are best taught in order as several techniques are explored and evolve in difficulty. This Art lesson provides a teacher and student section with a variety of step-by-step student projects and evaluation to create a well-rounded lesson plan.
