Arts and Crafts: Pumpkin Drawing

By Qiang Ma

Pumpkin Drawing is the first art lesson I teach each year so the finished drawings will be ready for parents to view during back to school night and will be ready for Halloween too. It is also a simple lesson to teach students basic coloring skills.

Materials include two lesson plans (one for oil pastel/crayon drawing and one for Chinese traditional painting), teacher step by step samples, teacher finished samples, and student finished samples.

This product is also inside the mini bundle Science Project: Plant Unit
