Drawing and Writing Stories

We have been working hard in our Drawing and Writing Journals in Writer's Workshop.  We are focusing on our sketching, particularly drawing bodies and faces.  We are learning that when we draw people, we want to use oval shapes and not sticks.  We used a picture from the book My Big Brother on the document camera as our model and look what we accomplished!

   

   

   

   

Next we worked on sketching faces and adding details.  Ms. Kieltyka was our model for this.

    

   

We are also learning about drawing people in action…walking, sitting, running, etc.  We sketched Mrs. Kurt sitting, too.

   

   

So excited to move on in our writing journey!
