The boys and I love this website Classics for Kids, here is their selection of resources for Vivaldi.

Art Lesson: Natural Hand Movement
On Monday we always do a short art lesson. Currently we are learning to draw and sketch with pencils. I found this great website called Drawspace, that provides free lessons you can view online or in PDF. I plan on working our way through the courses.
This was a fun lesson, that referenced a sketch from Leonardo da Vinci's Study of an Old Man. (Here is a color page too )
In this lesson we learned to find our natural and most comfortable hand motion.
Here are the boys attempts, their findings are circled.
