Science Notebook: Draw and Label

Name:                              
Date:              

Today I am practising: using a labeled drawing to communicate observations

1

Draw a safe object such as a leaf, rock, or classroom tool.

2

Add a title naming the object.

3

Draw three arrows to visible parts.

4

Label each arrow with a word or dictated phrase.

5

Circle the label that tells color and underline one that tells a part.

6

Show your drawing to an adult and explain one label.

Grown-up guide
  1. Invite slow looking before drawing; accuracy matters more than decoration.
  2. Accept invented spelling when the label clearly names the observed part.
  3. Ask the child to point to each label and its matching feature.
