Yay! Play! A favorite of my Middle School artists is Sketchbook Musical Chairs, a brain-break in which students move to music and stop at another person’s sketchbook. They have one minute to “improve” the drawing they land on, and off we go again.
One of my faves is “Big Fat Fibber”. My students become Art Historians or Museum Curators and present information about an artist or painting. The goal: hide your big fat fib in esoteric language, fraudulent expertise, or in a mountain of truth to avoid exposure by your art savvy peers
Thanks for the additional tips, I’m sure to try them all. Still trying to think of one for a Rubber Ducky..

Very cool! I will have to try a few.

Love the big fat fibber idea. I’m going to try out out with reading texts in my EFL classes.
2 games I like very much: scattegories and one we call “hot seat”.
