The great thing about simple drawing ideas is that most students will see the example and then adapt it to where their current skills are.

Kinders, for example, might follow this tutorial and focus on drawing a bear face for the first time, making sure they get the eyes and nose in the right place. And fifth graders might see an easy way to shade the simple white body on one side. Or the scarf as a way to add more complex patterns and colors.

Years of working with mixed grade level after school classes taught me that simple ideas were often a great vehicle for a wide variety of elementary age students. After all, I never had a student come back to complain about a drawing project being too easy. Instead, they were always proud that they found it that way, and were more likely to turn around and then draw something else!
