Graffiti


Graffiti is an expressive drama strategy that once again uses body language and does not involve talking. This can be done individually, in pairs, or in groups. As a response to a story, idea, phrase, or issue/topic, students will be writing or drawing in the air. Usually this is done by using one's hand/finger, but other creative ideas include using any body part (e.g. head, elbow, knee, bum). Students can also consider doing their graffiti at different levels in the air. Throughout a student's graffiti presentation, the other students can guess what is being written or drawn in the air. The teacher will then ask the student(s) to explain what was done. As an extension, the teacher can also have the students write down/draw what they did on a piece of paper.
