Have a student come up as an example, they will draw a sentance card. The sentence card will have a simple sentence of an action that the student will try and communicate to the class through physical movement. After reading the card the student will use only body movement to try and convey the sentence to the class. As they perform the sentence in front of the class, their classmates will try to decode the message. About 5 students will take a turn in the actions.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Lesson:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Step 1:<\/b>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remind students of last week\u2019s lesson where we talked about facial expressions.

We are all going to get on our feet. Now on our dots I want you to show me the same emotions and what they might look like using your whole body. Show me Happy! Sad! Angry!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have some very interesting choices being made here. (Side Coaching: What choices can you make to depict that emotion even stronger?) Now that we\u2019ve gotten a chance to practice these we are going to play a guessing game. We are going to split into two teams. Taking turns each team is going to create an emotion just like we have been and then the other team is going to observe the choices that were made and then try and guess what emotion they are creating.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Split the class into two. With the first group tell them that their emotion is \u201cSURPRISE\u201d. Give the students a 3,2,1 Freeze call as they freeze into their positions. Side coach with the group guessing. What do you guys see them doing? Are some of them doing the same things? What different things do you see? After observations ask them to guess the emotion. If they can\u2019t figure it out, have the other group tell them.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Complete this again with the other group.

Running?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that we\u2019ve got to do some activities, now let\u2019s explore a world that we are going to create.

You go over to the bricks and pick one up. How does the brick feel? Is it heavy? Is it rough? How big is it? Now you out the brick down and continue walking on. As you walk you run into a pile of sticks! Well, these are just in your way so you need to move them out of your way. As you move the sticks away let\u2019s explore the sticks a bit and see how they feel. What shape are they? What color? Are they different sizes? Are they heavy? Really show me what these sticks look like. Finally after your long tasks of moving the sticks they are finally out of your way and you can continue on your journey. The wind suddenly starts blowing really hard at you and start pushing you away. What does it look like as you try and fight against the wind that is trying so hard to blow you away? As you push and push you are suddenly able to break free into a run. As you speed past everything you suddenly find yourself in the middle of a farm. You sneeze a really big sneeze when you notice there is all this hay around! Well, we don\u2019t want your allergies getting to you, so you decide to pick up the hay and to move it far far away. Let\u2019s explore the hay as you move it away. What does it feel like? How heavy is it? What color is it? Well now that you\u2019ve moved all the hay you decide you should probably get back to school. So, you jump into the river that is near by and swim all the way back to Mrs. Dunlap\u2019s class.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Step 3:<\/b>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wow, you guys what an adventure we just went on!

So, we are going to split you guys up into groups of 4 and together you guys are going to tell us the story of the Three Little Pigs without saying any words.
