Creative Sustainability - Drawing Nature

Students investigate the living things in their yard by completing an observational drawing activity. They begin this lesson by thinking about the living things that can be found in the school yard, and then head outside to participate in a brief observation of these living things using their senses. Students then identify one living thing and draw it, while recording any interesting observations they made. Finally, students share their work in pairs or groups and offer feedback on the work of other students.
