Photo Alphabet:  Today we are going to take pictures of things around the building and courtyard that spell "Thank you".  We will be working as a class.  Once we have taken the photos, we will return to the classroom and download the photos to the computers.  You will then delete all of your photos from your camera to that they can be returned to Mrs. Armstrong's class.

If there is time, you will continue with your Power Point.  We will use today's photos for another project on Wednesday and Friday.

1.    Open your cityscape document and continue with your drawing
2.    Today I want you to add the sky and the clouds (I used a callout bubble and reduced the size of the thought stem to create my cloud).  You can also use the free draw tool to create your clouds.
3.    The clouds will be white and the sky blue.
4.    You will also add the trees.  I would suggest that you draw one tree, color it and then duplicate it and move the duplicates around your picture.
5.    Please keep in mind that I am not looking for perfection, I am looking for creativity and effort. 
6.    I would like to print and display your finished work, so give it your best effort.

Next Class:  You will be using the drawing tools to create more intricate designs.
