Drawing Birds!

I had a little extra time between projects this quarter to warm up the students with some drawing practice. Third, Fourth, and Fifth grade students each had the opportunity to learn how to draw birds. We practiced drawing basic shapes by locking our wrists and moving our entire arm to create nice clean and smooth lines. Students were reminded that each complex drawing starts out with very simple shapes and lines and then gradually becomes more detailed and coherent. 

Take a look at some of the amazing work these little artists did.
