In this resource, you will find a worksheet that focuses on 4 different pen techniques (hatching, cross-hatching, stippling, and scumbling). It is best to use this to help students understand the different ways you can use pen to create value. Understanding that some students may not know how to apply the technique in forms, there is also included in this resource a finished copy of the forms on the right. You can print this out for students to copy from or give them a digital copy.
