HOW TO PLAY...
Print off and distribute a Paper Telephone worksheet to everyone participating.
Make sure everyone has a pen or pencil and is sitting in a circle or around a table.
Use the Instruction sheet to explain to participants how the game works.
Everyone starts by writing a sentence on the first dotted line at the top of their sheet and passes it to their right.
Next, each person will attempt to draw a picture of the sentence in the first box.
When finished drawing, they then fold the paper backward so that only their drawing is visible and then pass the paper again to the right.
Everyone then must write a sentence on the next line that describes what is happening in the picture.
Participants continue this process until the paper is full...remembering to fold the paper backward so that only their entry is visible before passing it onto the right.
The results are usually quite funny and entertaining as you see how the first sentence on each paper morphs into the final sentence.
