Draw, Write & Learn: Let's Draw the Animals of the World

I believe in combining multiple subjects to make learning fun and engaging. We will combine art, geography, science and handwriting to learn about animals of the world.

In this course, each week students will learn:
- Interesting & fun facts about an animal. 
-Where the animal lives.  We will locate it on the map and identify on which continent it lives.
- How to draw the animal.
- How to draw the background.
- Construct & write sentences about the animal. During our writing we will focus on proper handwriting and letter formation. We will be using print handwriting during these lessons.
- Color the drawing using color pencils. 

We will visit all areas of the world drawing, writing & learning about the animals.  

We we will explore and learn about (in no particular order):
- Animals of the Down Under
- Animals of the Mountains & Deserts
- Animals of the Tropical Forests
- Animals of the Savanna
- Animals of the Northern Forest
- Animals of the Arctic

Some examples of animals we will be drawing and learning about are: elephants, tigers, sloths, bears, giraffes, thorny lizard, penguins, butterflies and so many more.

***Please note that I do offer these as separate courses. If you have taken one of my other Draw, Write & Learn courses the same animals will be taught in this ongoing course.  If you prefer to pay for a weekly class over a multi-day class then this is the class for you.***

No prior knowledge is necessary for this course. You may subscribe or unsubscribe to lessons at any time. 

For each class please bring the following:

1.  Print the digital file that will be sent after enrollment. There are 3 paper options, please choose the one that best fits your students comfort for handwriting.  
2.  For each session please print one framed blank page for our drawing PLUS the preferred writing page for your learner.  I recommend printing 2 pages per class in the event your learner needs an extra page. If it's not used it can be saved for the following class.
3.  Pencil
4.  Eraser
5.  Black felt tip marker (fine tip sharpie would be best)
6.  Color Pencils (I recommend color pencils for these projects so we can color in more detail).

***Please have all pencils and color pencils sharpened prior to class.***

***Please note I will be starting class right on time as we have a lot to cover in class. The recording will also be available after class. Thank you for your understanding.***

I can't wait to see you in class!
