I use quick draw paper, crayons on a screen board, for independent drawing. I will sometimes share the task of making a tactile graphic by making some parts myself and then give the student point markers or shapes cut out of self-adhesive foam and have the student add these in appropriate places on my template. Also, the Wheatley board & Tactile Town - my students love those! ---
