Day 1: value in graphite and charcoal, with a short whole class demo of shading a sphere with graphite, followed by the group challenge (value sphere) in charcoal.

Day 3:  Create  a drawing in a media they'd like to explore further. Students complete two Development activities from the  Artistic Thinking Process.
