Back to Back

Resources:

A description/a piece of text.

What to do:

Students should sit back to back with each other.
One by one they should read out their descriptions. Whilst one is reading the other is to draw what they hear.

I have used this to get students to understand the characteristics of gothic characters or to analyse language features in text. 

Variations:

Once the students has drawn their image they could annotate it using quotes from the description/text they are having read to them.
