As we have discussed this year, Art can be created using many different mediums, tools, and techniques. It's okay if you don't have a lot of art supplies at home, let's explore other ways to create outside of the classroom.
Start with "Sketch-Time" then dive into the world of Comics and Cartoon Drawing!
Sketch-Time
Grab paper and a pencil and let's get sketching! Generate and choose 1 or 2 nouns and draw whatever comes to mind relating to those words.
Here are the links to the Random Noun Generator and Instrumental Pop Music pages we use for Sketch Time in the classroom.
