Today fifth graders had to draw in sharpie without looking at their paper. To keep them from looking at their work their sharpies had a paper plate attached to it to cover up their hand.
Why would we do this you ask???? 
Well actually the answers really simple sometimes the left side of our brain that deals with numbers and letters is just too strong and we need to turn off that part of our brain and turn on, or activate the part that focuses on shape, line, color, and detail. To do that we had to work in complete silence and we really had to focus on what we we seeing. Overall though I think most kids had fun and ended the day with some beautiful flower drawings. I'll post more pictures of their work when it's finished.
