Can/Can’t Drawing Coin Game
Choose one of the phrases below. Before you start miming, secretly flip a coin. If you get
heads, draw a positive
“…can…” sentence with the person or thing successfully doing that
thing, e.g. a dog typing on a computer with real words on the screen. If you get tails, draw
a negative
“…can’t…”showing that person or thing trying to do something but failing, e.g. a
boy dropping all three juggling balls and looking sad. The first person to say the whole
correct sentence gets one point. If no one gets it, you can also draw the opposite sentence
and cross it out and/ or circle the thing that you want them to say.
