6. What We Will Do Make our own!
Each of you will get a rectangle cut out and a blank piece of paper
Using a black crayon/pencil crayon make outlines on your paper
They have to be parallel to the page
That means no diagonals!

7. What We Will Do You should have traced it at least 10 times
They can go outside of the paper and overlap!
Only use primary colors (red, yellow and blue)
Color in all the rectangles and squares made
Leave the other areas white
Try your best to stay in the lines
