Week 1: Different ways to express ourselves





There are many ways to express how we feel.  When I need to get the children's attention, singing my instructions is a great way to get them engaged in the process.  In our first class, we brainstormed topics that are meaningful.  The children have favourite superheros, sports, playground games, snacks.  As the weeks progress, we will explored a meaning topic for each child.




But what are the different ways we can express ourselves?  It's was time for a guessing game.  I am going to express myself, and the children will take a picture, and tell me what I was expressing and how I expressed it!
A Christmas tree expressed by using paint and a brush
A Snake expressed by hissing and slithering my body

The children became snakes too
An angry lion expressed via a one man puppet show- the tiger is angry because he needs lunch!
