Paper Pencil Colored pens

You can create a letter or story using pictures and symbols instead of words. This is called a REBUS. Here are some examples:

instead of “I,” draw an eye instead of “can,” draw a watering can instead of “love,” draw a heart instead of “be,” draw a bee

Note: Rebus comes from a Latin word meaning “things.” In the old days, signs and posters advertising carnivals were painted with pictures and no words to show people what “things” were going on.
