(2) Tree: Present a piece of plain, white 8.5x11-inch paper at an angle to the subject and say: “Here I want you to draw a tree as good as you can.” Use these questions as a guide:  What kind of tree is this?  How old is it?  What season is it?  Is it a healthy tree?  Has anyone tried to cut it down?  Who waters the tree?  Trees need sunshine to live, so does it get enough sunshine? (3) Person: See Draw-A-Person instructions. **Alternative instructions: Have the subject draw all three items on the same piece of paper, then ask the above questions. The advantage of this method is that you get to see the relationship between the three items. “Here I want you to draw a house, a tree, and a person as good as you can.”
