Possible Pre-Teaching Ideas

Play various sound effects or instrumental music and have the students draw how the sounds/music makes them feel. This can be as simple as lines or more complex. The key is having students using their hearing and imagination to draw.
Ignite student imagination, having them listen to words, phrases and sketch what they hear. This could be done on an erasable board or scrap paper. Again, the key is having students using their hearing and imagination to draw.
Brainstorm possible things that might be seen on “The Bike that is a Car”
- - - streamers, a fish tank, wings, a plant, gauges, a juice box holder.
Look at labelled diagrams.

Brief Explanation of Activity

Using student imagination and creativity, have the students illustrate what they think “The Bike that is a Car” looks like. You may choose to have a diagram of a bicycle to help students- but remember this is a “Bike that is a Car” so it's not your typical looking bicycle. Students can then label the different parts of their creation.

Success Criteria/Assessment

Because student illustrations will vary greatly, assessment will be anecdotal and a quick visual assessment ensuring they completed the task. This would be seen as a checkmark type of assessment for completion.
