TECHNIQUES: HAND AND PAPER

• GO LIVE AND WORK WITHOUT A NET! I like this with an iPad.

• Pencil first then darken and perfect

• Pencil first then pen--

• Pen first then embellish

• Make a rough draft and redo—I use this when I really want to get things just so, as for a lesson.

PUTTING SKETCHNOTING TO WORK

• I started out with some presentations done at my own speed and used to explain assignments.

• In meetings I started sketching.

• I challenged my students to produce sketchnotes for assignment submissions.

• I started sharing online.

USING WITH OLDER KIDS/ADULTS

• Starter activity…baby steps…sketch a quotation. Maybe try both computer and hand drawing and compare.

• TAKING NOTES—either from you or from a podcast

• Incorporate into research projects

• Draw song lyrics. Then stories. Then books.

• Research reports

DRAW A QUOTATION—GREAT STARTER
