My 8-teen aged class really enjoyed the stone letters resource. I did some adaptaions so that we could do charcoal instead of graphite as I have a broad range of ages and experience in the class. Younger students were allowed to trace the outlines first, then fill in the values. Older students did the countour drawing as shown in the resource but finished with charcoal. I'm looking forward to using the other resources in this package with my students.

Very fun approach to classic exercises! The main reason I purchased was to make my approach more accessible to students in my beginner level classes. Thank you!

I never enjoyed teaching value because my students really conceptually never understood it! Mrs. Fox's resources have totally changed the game. Students enjoyed learning how to shade a sphere and then added their own creativity.
