Kindergarten Art Sub Plans | Easy Drawing Lesson

Kindergarten Art Sub Plans for Easy Drawing


This lesson, by Rina, at the K-6 Art blog,  was based on a book from 1977. The Magic Pear: Twelve Outline Drawing Lessons with Directions for the Amusement of Little Folks, by Morgan Sweeney, is based on drawing things beginning\ with the shape of a pear.

Rina says that you do not need the book to do the lesson. You do need to create drawing templates in the shape of a pear. She also said that the lesson was a big hit with her kindergarten students.
