MUSICAL DRAWING
Listen to a well-known classical piece and draw what you hear. You can use Saint-Saëns song in the Composer column.

What to Do:
  1. Listen through once without drawing anything - to just concentrate on the music and see what comes to mind. 
  2. Draw. Play the piece 2-3 more times, letting them sketch their mental pictures. Any medium is fine – pencil, colored pencils, crayons, chalk (if you choose to do it outside) or even paint.
  3. Share your sketch with Ms. Wadler email to:  rwadler@houstonisd.org
