Guess Something

My artist friend and I played DrawSomething for a couple of months. The game gave players a word and asked them to create an image with their drawing tools based on that word for the friend to guess. The only hint they received beside the image was how many letters the word contained. We had so much fun with this game that I decided to save my drawings and make it into a game for my students. THEY LOVED IT. So, I packaged up the game for anyone to play.

The game includes 55 drawings with dashes under the image to indicate the number of letters in the correct answer. The following page will show the correct answer.

You can use the game as

• a daily brain teaser
• all class game with teams

After students practice interpreting images, give them the chance to draw. Have them make a game based on your

• spelling lists
• vocabulary words

• Visual Literacy Roll & Draw Game
• Art Institute Bingo
• Connect a Concept Matching Game
• Pin the Feature on the Face
• Augmented Reality Haunted ARt
• Fugleflicks Film Festival
