8. Guided practice (students practice, you coach):
• Have students follow your finger with a pencil if they are having trouble drawing big or the right shape.
• Have them re-draw if not using the whole page.
• Give the markers out to the students instead of them grabbing them for a free for all—so they don’t mess up and have to start over.
9. Independent Practice (students on their own):
