Students are to choose a scene from a fairy tale or story and draw it as silhouettes. For grade 2, they should include at least 3 silhouettes that can be characters, animals, furniture or a border. For grade 3, they should add a background drawn or found. For grade 4, they should create silhouettes within other silhouettes, and different colors could help distinguish the layers.

1. Homework: Silhouette
Choose a scene from a fairy tale or popular story.
Draw the moment you have chosen. All the characters and objects should be silhouettes.
You can either colour in the silhouettes or cut them from paper and stick them in your book.
Grade 2:
Carefully create at least 3 silhouettes in your scene. They do not all have to be people.
The three silhouettes could include animals, furniture or a decorative border.
Tip: It is more effective if hands, arms and legs are pointing away from the body.
Grade 3:
Include a background. This could be drawn in
pencil or you could find an image.
Tip: This works best when the background is
pale.
Grade 4<:
Create silhouettes within
silhouettes.
Tip: Using different colours could
help pick out the different layers of
silhouettes.
