To Have Fun
This is my aunties house and my auntie has two dogs and two horses and she has one cat and she has three birds and she has a fence in front of her house. It is always sunny there. Me and my auntie always go to the waterfall to watch the horses have fun in the water. Sometimes the dogs find rocks and bring them over to me and sometimes they almost drop it on my toe. My aunts first dog her name is Cona and her second dog is named lady. The horses are named Thunderbolt and Star. The parrots name is Polly and the second parrots name is Johnny and the third parrot is named Jaxie. The cat is named Sally.

In this unit, artists learn to draw from observation; first finding the basic shapes that make up an object, and then observing them carefully in order to capture all the unique details. They bring in their favorite toy to draw, then they fill the background with details that show where their toy goes in their imagination.
