Love That Teaching Idea! Staff Have
your students sit in groups of four. Give each student a blank
sheet of paper and a lined sheet of paper. Set your timer for
1 minute. Have each student take out their blank piece of paper
and start drawing a picture of a Christmas scene. Perhaps some
may choose to draw the inside of a home, a tree by a fireplace,
or an outdoor winter scene. At the end of one minute, call "time"
and have each student pass their paper to the person on their
left and begin the timer again, instructing your students to "add"
to the picture that was drawn previously. Continue this procedure
until everyone in the group has had a turn to add the the original
picture of each student's. Your students will be so excited to
see how each person in the group added to their original drawing.
NOW, have your students take out their lined sheets of paper.
Looking at their hand-drawn picture, instruct your students to
begin a story about this picture. This time, set your timer for
approximately 2-5 minutes, depending on the age and ability of
your students. Once the timer goes off, have them pass it on to
the next person in the group and continue this procedure just
as you did the first time. Be sure to include each "author
and illustrator's" name on the finished project and hang
on your new bulletin board! |
