1. I first gave the students oval cardboard templates that were about 5" tall by 3" wide. They were to trace them in the middle of light blue construction paper. With the oval used as the body, the students are to then draw the head, wings and feet. Circle eyes and a triangle complete the face. A horizon line is added to the background, along with a sun, if desired.
2. The students then traced all of their drawing with a thin black marker, and then colored in the shapes with oil pastel. Because this image has so much white, it's fun to do on almost any colored paper so that the white can be colored in.
