Materials: drawing paper and crayons Give each student a piece of drawing paper and ONE crayon. Instruct students to draw a picture using only their one crayon and allow class time for them to do so.
Once they are all finished, have students share their creations with the class. As a class, discuss:
How did you feel about only being able to use one crayon?
How would your pictures be different if you had been able to use many different crayons?
How do you feel when you are alone?
How are things different when you have friends and family to support you?
What lesson do you think this activity is teaching?
What lesson did the book, The Crayon Box That Talked teach?
