1. If you make leaf templates from some kind of posterboard, I would make them large enough to fill a 9" x 12" paper. Stems could be left off and just drawn in, to keep things simple. To begin, the students trace the leaf in pencil near the top of the paper.
2. A stem is added at the bottom, and veins are drawn up the center to divide the leaf into many shapes.
3. The students are to fill in each section of the leaf with a pattern. Challenge them to think of as many different patterns as possible. I used a black ballpoint pen on my sample, but a very thin black marker would look nice too.
