Introduction to Lettering, Ink and Design - Semester Visual Art Lesson Bundle

This bundle is comprised of ink and design lessons. Most incorporate lettering in some fashion. These lessons use minimal materials; ink, paper, colored pencils and glue and are an excellent way to teach ink drawing and graphic design.

All lessons include a lesson plan with National Visual Arts Standards, a Powerpoint presentation and a student self-evaluation. Most also include supplemental worksheets to provide assistance to students for concepts and a few include video demonstrations.
