Use this fun finish the drawing tiger worksheet to help your students explore Lunar New Year in your classroom.
Celebrate Lunar New Year With a Drawing Activity
It’s Lunar New Year! Why not explore one of the popular animals in the Chinese zodiac with a fun “finish the drawing” activity that challenges kids to use their critical thinking skills? This drawing activity will spark your students’ imaginations as they work to create a picture of a tiger using only a few lines to guide them.
What Personality Does a Tiger Have?
Before completing this activity, have a class discussion about adjectives. For example, people born in the Year of the Tiger are determined and inspirational, making them natural leaders. Encourage your students to draw a tiger depicting those traits. Don’t forget stripes and a ferocious smile!
Differentiate This Tiger Drawing Activity
If your students need additional support with this activity, provide a large-copy version of the example on page 1 for them to copy. Alternatively, turn this into a whole-class guided drawing activity. Encourage your students to explore their creative side with a “finish the picture” activity they can swap with a friend.
