Draw me!

Agegroup: 13 year and up

Level:          Easy

Duration:     3 hours

ICT Tools:   TwinSpace forum, paint programmes, image processing software (optional), scanner (if doing hand painting)

 

 

On successful completion of this activity pupils will be able to:

 

 

Each pupil posts a detailed description of him/herself on the TwinSpace forum and asks a partner pupil to draw him/her according to this description. Pupils can produce a hand or computer painting or even use an image processing software to produce a funny collage (e.g., using the eyes of a famous actor, the body of an athlete, etc). Pictures are then posted back to their rightful recipients who, in turn, reveal their real images by posting them in the photo gallery of the TwinSpace.

Pupils have developed a easy and fun first collaboration relationship with their partners in other countries and are at ease to work together further on future activities and tasks related to their overall eTwinning project objectives.

 

Photo privacy issues: when posting photos in the TwinSpace, be sure to respect the privacy of each pupil. Do not include family names or personal details such as addresses and phone numbers. For all photos published in a public TwinSpace, be sure to have parental consent.
