The document provides instructions for a classroom lesson where students will create two still life drawings - one by tracing a photo using the Tracing Lite app on iPads, and one by drawing from life using paper and pencils. After completing both drawings, students will compare the two media types by writing reflections in their Totes Notebook app on which they preferred, which was easier or harder, and which produced better results. The document also includes end of class procedures for closing apps and shutting down the iPads.

6. Notes to Teacher:
This is an example of one class period that followed several days of
iPad usage (including the Tracing Lite App, photos and camera work, and the
Totes Notebook app). The students were already familiar with the apps
used during this class.
In addition, there was a previous lesson on sketching, value and drawing from life.
