DIRECTIONS

1. PREP: Print a tutorial for each student. If you prefer not to fold the paper to get guide lines, then use my grid template on page 4 of the PDF download.
2. Follow the 8 steps on the tutorial to draw George Washington. Use the grid lines to help you get good placement of the lines in your drawing.
3. When the drawing is done, trace everything carefully with a thin black marker.
4. Color the drawing carefully with crayons.
