Pick out an animal from the arctic to draw. Because there is such a wide variety of arctic animals to choose from, you should select one that either fits in with the objectives of your lesson plan or is something that your students are particularly enthusiastic about. The polar bear, the arctic fox, the seal, the walrus, or the penguin are all potential candidates for this role (although penguins are not native to the Arctic).

Collect the necessary items. You will need paper, pencils, and any other art supplies that you would like to use in order to participate in this activity (such as crayons, markers, or paint). In order for the students to get a good idea of what the animal they are drawing looks like, it is a good idea to have a reference picture of the animal on hand.
