READY MIX
Draw big, simple shapes for
your cow’s body with a pencil.
Draw very lightly. A cow’s
body is a rectangle. Cows have
short legs and a long tail. Draw
ovals for the head and feet.
Still drawing with a pencil,
start adding details like eyes,
hooves, udders, and horns.
Remember to draw lightly with
the pencil because you’ll be
erasing the pencil lines.
Draw over the pencil lines in
ink. Make sure the ink is dry,
then erase all the pencil lines.
Color your cow and add spots,
stripes, or wild & wacky
patterns.
Standards Link: Reading Comprehension: Follow simple written directions.
Only two of these kooky cows are identical.
How fast can you find them? Better get moooo-ving!
Standards Link: Visual discrimination: Recognize objects that match.
Select one page of
the newspaper and
find all of the letters
that spell the word
NONSENSE. Circle
each letter. Draw a
line from the ‘N’ to
the ‘O’ and so forth
until you have
connected all the
letters. What kind of
picture can you make
from the design
created by these dots
and lines?
