A6.13. MIRROR GAME


MATERIALS:

None

USE:

Model activity with one child at a time. Teacher and child sit across from each other. Teacher explains that child is her mirror, so child does exactly what teacher does. Start with one hand moving up or whatever and child follows. Use slow movements. Involve one hand, then other hand, both hands, head, shoulders etc. After children have had lots of practice sessions with teacher, have two children do it for group. Later let children have partners and do with whole group. (Perhaps for older children.)
