3. Activity #1: Follow directions to create a Winter Scene!
Directions: Read the directions below to draw and color the following scene you might see this time of year, in the space provided. Read over all the
directions before you begin. (Planning is important!)
In your scene: There is an emerald colored house with a crimson door and a chimney on the roof. In one window, you can see brilliant lights decorating
something. Outside the house, a maroon gift box sits next a tree adorned with candy canes. Next to the tree, you can see a voracious, dappled reindeer
grazing on some exposed grass. The ornate mailbox, which has your surname written in black on the side, has a receipt inside it. There is also a rotund
man dressed nearby, holding a family memento! (Label what the memento is, please.)
