You Matter

Watch the video below: Author and Illustrator Christian Robinson reads his book, You Matter.

After you watch the video/read the story, you can follow the illustration at the end of the video to learn how he draws a T-Rex.

Now come up with a saying about how you matter. It could say something like "I'm Unique and I Matter." or "I'm Green and I Matter" or "Even though I feel alone, I Matter".

You can do another drawing that goes along with your saying (this could be anything you want) or use your dinosaur. Outline/trace your drawing using a dark color. You can use any kind of material - crayons, markers, colored pencils, sharpie. Color in your drawings using the same or a different material you used to outline your drawings. You could use watercolors this time too if you wanted.

Send me a video showing me what you did on the flipgrid below. Can't wait to see you and your drawings!
