LESSON<br />
1. Look at images of the Australian Outback. Discuss with the students the objects and<br />
colours they would likely see in the Australian Outback.<br />
2. Students draw a simple scene of rocky hills, trees, rocks and perhaps some water.<br />
Encourage students to keep the shapes simple.<br />
3. Once satisfied with their scene, students trace over the lines using black permanent marker.<br />
4. Colour using water-soluble crayon, keeping the colours simple, bright and bold.<br />
5. Paint over the crayon using water, one colour at a time, so that the colours do not smudge.<br />
Allow to dry.<br />
