1 Think about the many different personalities of people you know. Often, our personalities are expressed in our hands. What do your hands say about you? What do you wear on them to express yourself?

2 With Crayola® Erasable Colored Pencils, draw a variety of different hands on white paper. Trace around your fingers if you want to be realistic, and use Crayola Multicultural Crayons to match your skin color. Then design some other hands using your imagination. What would alien hands look like? What would they wear?
