Marie’s drawing notes:
The sailboat is a simple figure. It can be made as large as you want by using dots 4-5-6 for the mast, increasing the number of spaces by one for each line added. Make the boat length correspond to the width of the sail.

Marie’s drawing notes:
This drawing has two figures in it – a man on the left, a woman on the right. It uses 4 lines down and 9 spaces across. The two heads are formed with the contraction OW and the letter “O”. The arms of both the man and woman are raised up. The man has straight legs and turned out feet. The woman has a skirt made by using the contraction for “THE” and the letter “Z”. Stick figures can be used in all kinds of drawings. They can hold flags, signs, stand on top of things- you’ll find all kinds of uses for them.

Row 6: space 1 time, E [15], hyphen [36], I [24], space 5 times, E [15], hyphen [36], I [24].
End design.
Marie’s drawing notes:
This is a side view of a truck with a box-like trailer, a cab, a back and front wheel, and a light on the front. It uses 6 lines down and 14 spaces across. The idea can be expanded to make a school bus, using a series of contractions for (a full cell) as windows. It can be made more elaborate with the sloping hood and fancy windows of a car.

Marie’s drawing notes:
This small teddy bear uses 6 lines down and 8 spaces across. He has two ears, two round eyes, a suggestion of a nose, and is sitting with his front paws up at his rounded sides and his back feet stretched out in front of him. He is cute and cuddly and has a bit of personality. He is easily recognized as a teddy bear.

Marie’s drawing notes:
This teddy bear has personality. He has a gleam in his eyes, eyebrows, a perky look about him. You can add to him by drawing a bow for a tie. You can put a bow on his head and a flair of skirt around his hind feet and he becomes a she. We call them Guildabear and we take them around with us when we display our books. They have great appeal, [and] good P.R.
Drawing notes:
We removed 8 spaces from the front to fit our page.
