As the "author" reads his or her description, the partner draws what he or she believes the author's toy looks like. Have both partners write, read, and draw.When drawings are finished (author may not comment on the drawing before it is finished or say anything other that what he or she has written down), the author should look at the partner's drawing of the described toy.
