Roll-A-Basquiat

What educators are saying
Description
This game can be played individually or with a group of students (I usually give one dice per table...you can purchase big foam dice off of amazon for super cheap and they are not noisy!) They will take turns rolling and have to draw what they roll. The first roll they will draw whatever head goes with that number, second roll they will draw the body, and so on.
This is a great game to play to give students different ideas of what kind of Jean-Michel Basquiat inspired monster/skeleton they want to draw! I noticed that 90% of my students always draw the exact same thing as my teacher sample for a project....this roll-a-basquiat game allows students to see more choices in front of them and give them different ideas.
I use this as part of my Basquiat Abstract lesson. We paint an abstract background and then paint our creatures on top of it.
Here are some different demo videos of projects you can use this with!
