Meet Michael Rakowitz

 Dear GROW friends,

In my last letter, or blog post, we had fun with an upside-down drawing activity. Did you save your drawings to show me later?

If you haven't seen my last letter or done this activity yet, don't read any further! Scroll down until you see "Older Post" in blue letters and click there. I promise it will be more fun if you finish the drawing activity before you read this letter!

Now, that you've finished the activity, watch my video below. Make sure you have a piece of paper and something to write with before you start the video.


I almost forgot - I did the upside-down drawing activity. It took me a really long time! Here's how it looks upside down:


And right side up!

The one arm is a little long and the head is a little small, but I don't think it's *too* bad. It was challenging and fun!

Take care and stay warm!
