Fun things to try include:

Practice layering: Creating still life compositions with chalk or pastels allows students to experiment by adding complementary or contrasting colors on top of the foundation shade.
Creating rubbings: Making impressions using soft chalk pastels is easy. Rub the pastels against leaves
or textured surfaces and press them against clean sheets of paper to leave impressions.
