This Week's Project!!
You must learn how to draw something and teach us.  This is called guided or directed drawing.
You can go to a website to find a picture or character that you enjoy drawing and the practice.  Your drawing can be a very simple picture or a more difficult picture, that is up to you.  You will have 5 minutes to teach us.  You can make a video of yourself teaching us an we can play it like last week, or you can teach us live on Friday zoom. If you teach us live, you need to have the camera looking at the paper you are drawing on.  Think about how you will set this up before Friday.
All students come to the zoom prepared to draw - bring blank paper and pencil, eraser, crayons, markers, whatever you want to use to draw.
Some ideas:
