draw your animal
AGES | 5-11 |
FORMAT | Small Groups |
MATERIALS NEEDED | Per group: one die, one paper, one pencil |
DURATION | 5-10 minutes |
PREPARATION REQUIRED None
DESCRIPTION
1. Put students into groups of 3-4.
2. Write the following on the board:
1 | Head and Trunk |
2 | Legs |
3 | Tail |
4 | Ears |
5 | Body |
6 | tusks |
3. In each group, student one rolls the dice and draws the
corresponding body part(s) according to the chart on the board.
4. The die is passed to Student 2 who rolls the die and he/she
draws the body part for that number.
5. If a student rolls a number that is a repeat, he/she simply passes
the die on to the next person.
6. This continues until the elephant is completed.
7. The first group to finish makes an elephant noise to indicate their
success.
VARIATION
1. The animal can be changed for future rounds. The animal’s
home (a tree, a nest, the ocean…etc.) can be added if you need an
extra item.
2. Curriculum material could be included. For example, if you are
studying the digestive system, the chart might look like this:
1 | Small intestine |
2 | mouth |
3 | Pancreas and gall bladder |
4 | esophagus |
5 | stomach |
6 | Large intestine |
Part of the evaluation would be if everything is labeled correctly
and in its proper spot.
Example 2: 6 parts of a time-line (for history or a story line)
