Teacher Examples of Surrealist Lesson

Here are two examples of what I would use for my first lesson.
Inspired by the surrealist games, students would begin by playing the sentence game!
This is great for people all ages.
Begin with a group of 4 or more--each person has a pile of papers about 5 or 6 sheets high--the game begins by each player writing a random, descriptive sentence on the first sheet-- pass the pile to your left-- based off the sentence, draw a picture that illustrates what the first player wrote-- place sentence underneath pile-- create sentence based off picture.
And so on and so forth-- when everyone finishes with the last sheet of paper, go around the circle and share! You will get a good laugh from this exercise.

Here are some of the examples from when I played with my group.

After the groups play this warm up game they will have to collaborate to create a final piece. It can be a narrative piece or abstract involving some of the images drawn and words used.

Here are some of the examples I came up with from the warm up games.
