- STEP 1: Get students into pairs and assign one as the “draw-er” and one as the “describer”. The draw-er can’t ask questions – they are just drawing. And the describers can’t react to the drawing – they are just looking at what’s in front of them.
- STEP 2: Give the Describers an image, object, or scene to view. Do not show this to the Draw-ers.
- STEP 3: Describers start by describing the image, object, or screen to the draw-er. The draw-er must draw whatever the describer says. Remember: the draw-er cannot ask question.
- STEP 4: Once finished, everyone can look at the image, object, or scene and compare what the draw-er drew to the actual item.
- STEP 5: Lead a discussion to share and reflect on the process. Use this as an opportunity to explain the difference between objective and subjective information. Ask how both of these played a role in the activity.
