Class 2 Notes:
Skillbuilding
Start with showing them how to draw the Cool S as a fun and easy one

Outline
Contour
Blind Contour
Practice contour on the volumetric foam shapes
Practice on plushies or simple household objects
Go outside and practice contour with a house or something
Diving In to Volumetric Drawing
Go outside (bring your phone & take photos), select a mailbox or some simple standalone object. And have them practice doing contour and blind contour drawing, then bring them back in.
Show them how to break that down volumetrically
Practice Drawing the Foam Shapes from several different views:
Learning how to see and break things down still life with basic geometic shapes- Practice with some common objects doing exploded views, then go back outside, pick an area with simple shapes, and have them practice from life- houses are a good one
