Draw an amino acid. Join it to another amino acid via dehydration synthesis to make a dipeptide. Label all parts of each amino acid and the peptide bond.
Now draw two dipeptides one on top and one below it-connect the dipeptides on top to the ones on the bottom with a line to show that they are part of two strands of one protein molecule. Connect the two dipeptides via hydrogen bonds.
