Act It Out!

Last week we got into groups and performed living art. It was a great way to understand what was happening in pictures that were taken and the story behind them. This is great to use in the classroom! Children acting out plays, working with each other and being creative is a great way to get students involved. Acting out as animals such as myself (the grasshopper) is fun to position yourself or friends to make the picture come to life. This is a great addition to readers theater. Instead of having students read lines in a play and perform for the class, allowing them to perform living art in groups is more creative and exciting for students. Acting lets the students work together and has them to think outside the box. Act It Out!
