This is like a monster yearbook page! We will be drawing portraits of monsters to show how life without diversity is scary. IT would be scary if we were all the same, right? And not to mention BORING! Yearbook Portraits are of only the shoulders up. We will use our imaginations to create our own monsters in each block of space.
Begin by folding paper into 4-8 boxes.
Sketch lightly a different monster in every box. Keep diversity in mind. Each one should be totally different. There's no rules on their parts. Monsters can have one eye just as easily as TEN!
I showed a short clip of Pixar's Monster's Univrsity to get their creative juices flowing.

Brady Bunch Boxes
I also showed them the Brady Bunch intro so they could see how the characters interact with each other from their different box spaces (looking up or down into the next box.

After pencil ideas look good, outline with a black marker to emphasize their shapes and details.
