Draw Then Write (Grades 1-3) covers 23 different topics (dog, horse, cowboy, cat, ,astronaut, pig, camel, football player, knight, convertible, kangaroo, pirate, frog, gorilla, cheerleader, bear, crocodile, skater, penguin, scooter rider, bird, hippo, and backgrounds such as buildings, roads, tree-lined horizon, rolling hills,and more), all of which are very appealing and unoffensive - you will not find any witches, monsters, etc., in these books. Each topic has clear, step-by-step drawing instructions and some language arts activities to go with the picture being drawn. The language activities are great, but these books are more than worth the price for the drawing instructions alone - I practically had to wrestle my review copies away from my 6 year old son, who is the family's very most reluctant artist!!
In addition to all of this, the books are fully reproducible, making them a terrific value. As we work through this book and the second volume in the series, my children are adding to their "drawing vocabulary." Having a mental bank of images that they have learned to draw really helps them enjoy doing art projects. Many of these pictures lend themselves very well to different science and history topics, so we plan to incorporate them into our history notebooks and science notebooks as well.
Each picture is presented in a number of different ways. The first page is a step-by-step chart showing how to draw the picture. The second page shows the directions again in a smaller format, with a box beneath for drawing the picture. The third page for each picture shows variations of the same picture - in different poses, etc., with a box for drawing and the challenge "Draw the . . . .several different ways. How many changes can you make?" The fourth page for each picture has a drawing box on top and lines on the bottom, with instructions for drawing a picture then writing a good paragraph about it.
A WORD ABOUT GRADE LEVELS: The primary difference between Volume One and Volume Two is the level of difficulty of the language arts instructions. My first grade reluctant artist has been gleefully drawing all sorts of things from the grades 4-6 volume. The pictures are a bit easier in the grades 1-3 book, but if our little guy can draw from the 4-6 book, then I believe that any first grader could also. When local and convention customers actually get a look at these books, they usually end up buying one of each - they are that great! (My mom even bought a set for herself!!!)
