I like to sprinkle in directed drawings throughout the year because it is a great listening activity, which also boosts kids’ confidence in their artistic abilities. It teaches students how to draw an object piece by piece, step-by-step. My favorite things to use are oil pastels because the colors are bright, and you can see them through the watercolors. Oil pastels can be expensive, so I break each one into three pieces to share among the students. Also, drawing with broken, small tools is great for developing their pencil grasp. What I do is model each step while talking through how to draw the shape or line.

Then, I give the students an opportunity to do the same step. At the end, they can paint their drawing with watercolors!
