Preparation Transparencies for the overhead projector (see Part 2) with
line drawings
Time 5—15 minutes
Procedure The teacher puts a transparency with a complicated line
drawing on the OHP. It should be out of focus (check
position beforehand!), so that only a blurred image can be
seen. The students guess what the drawing could represent,
e.g. Ί think it could be a room.' 'I'm not quite sure, but the
object on the left looks like a chair.' 'Is the round thing a
lamp?' 'Perhaps the long shape is a person; it's got two legs.'
etc.
