Introduce shapes – square, circle, oval, triangle, pentagon if you want, etc... Introduce different types of lines – straight, curved, horizontal, vertical, parallel if you want...
Introduce descriptions – shaded, striped, spotted, etc...
Introduce directions – top, bottom, in the middle, in the corner, left, right, top-left, northeast, etc...
Choose one student to be the “artist” who will stand at the board with their back to the class.
Show the rest of the class a pre-drawn drawing that uses the vocab you just taught.
Have the artist's classmates shout out directions to help him draw what they are being shown. (You should probably call on people so the artist isn't confused by all the noise)
Afterwards have the artist look at your drawing and see how close they were. Give them tips on how to improve their directions.
Now have the class draw a picture using the shapes and words you just taught.
Collect and re-distribute and pair up students. They CAN NOT show their drawing to the other person.
Have one be the artist and the other give directions.
