Description

Draw something on a A4 paper. It should be neither very easy nor too difficult to copy. Give the paper with the shapes to one participant of each group. The rest of the group cannot see the drawing.
* If the group is too big you can divide them into smaller groups of around 5 participants.
After that, the one that is holding the paper will start describing the shapes on the paper and try to guide the others in the group to draw the shapes in the exact way as the paper that is given.
When they finish, ask them to talk about their drawings and make their own conclusions about this activity and the way each person has their own way of thinking and communicating with others. Ask them if they would change anything if they had the chance to repeat the activity.

Variations
You can also play this activity, with closed eyes. Ask the group to close their eyes and guide them to make the drawing while they have their eyes closed.
