Teaching art with Directed Draw is my favorite. Breaking up the image with shapes they can identify and easily understand works so well. With this project - they created a large X on the paper and closed the top to make it look like a triangle. Then we added triangle ears and football shaped eyes...and a nose with a J and a backwards J. Amazing how breaking down a project can make it so doable for the kids! When the teacher first saw this project she doubted me...and was so excited about the results!
