Stick figure fun


Kia ora


It’s the holidays!

So, today for the summer learning journey I have been drawing stick figures doing loads of different activities. 

This is how to draw a  stick figure: 

1.Draw an oval for the head

2. Draw a straight line coming down from the bottom   

of the head

3. Draw a straight line coming from one side of the  

body

4. Repeat on the other side 

5.Draw a leg on the bottom 

6. Repeat on the other side 

And in about a minute you have got your very own simple stick figure

The stick figure is a simple way to draw a person using ovals,

curves and lines. Stick figures are also often the way that babies learn to draw people. Today stick figures are used to

o create comics, animations, games, film storyboards and also visual media. 


One of the more popular stick figures is the one and only Pak'n’save masco Stickman! You can see him in any p

ak’n’save ad and you might even see him in store too!

Another interesting fact about stick figures is that the first stick figure ever recorded dates back to 1964 WOW!

That was a long time ago.


I enjoy drawing the stick figures and thinking of cool activities that they can do. I found it challenging to get the position of it  body right

Have a awesome holiday

  1. Kia ora Irelyn,

    Wow!! You have created some very active and busy stick figures!

    Do you enjoy doing the activities your stick figure is doing? Some of them seem like awesome things to do during the summer holidays! Like playing fetch, soccer, swimming, and playing. Perhaps not robbing a bank or falling!

    Awesome work finding some fun facts about the history of stick figures, especially the Pak n Save guy! Your instructions on how to draw a stick figure are clear and very well written, maybe i’ll have to give it a try!

    Perhaps now you can give the step it up activity a go, animating a stick figure on your computer.

    Keep up the awesome and creative mahi!

    Ngā mihi,
    Lauren
