Give each student a piece of blank paper. Have them draw a figure on it. Then have them pass it to the person behind them, with the last person giving it to the first person in the row. They draw a congruent or similar figure on their new paper and pass it along. Continue until passing and drawing until everyone gets their origianal paper back. Discuss the difficulties encountered and the accuracy of other's drawings.
