In a class practice we will draw 4 different backgrounds using the following skills.

When drawing a background, consider the following:
Interior or Exterior – Is in inside of outside?
Rule of Thirds – Dividing your drawing in thirds can help make a beautiful composition.
Staging –  Where is your character standing? Use the rule of thirds and use Perspective
Shading and Lighting – Is there light in the space? Does it shine upon your character?
Line Density – By using different line thickness you can create the illusion of depth.
Cuts & Transitions – As you draw your drawings, think of the order of the transitions or cuts. Make the drawings make sense and help the viewer understand where they are.

Use reference images! Find beautiful images on line to help you!
