WHY DIRECTED DRAWING?

There are lots of reasons to try directed drawing with your students! Here are a few skills and benefits:

practice with following directions
practice close attention to detail
fine motor development
increased stamina in focus and attention
self-expression and communicating ideas
growing skills in drawing and appreciation of art
perfect for celebrating seasonal content and decorate the class
an easy writing center to switch out each week
a fun activity to do at home! Send the link to parents and ask them to draw together, and write about their pictures!
