Acting Activities with Kay

Your class will "explore" the desert, the arctic and underwater for insects. Then, they'll BECOME insects as they jump, glide, buzz, and fly. Seventeen insects and fascinating facts about them. Fun for everyone!

This fact packed activity lead by Kay will have your students acting like insects in no time. Includes a short warm-up using vowel sounds, actions of 11 different insects, "A Literary Moment" using comparative endings and insects, and a chance for your students to create a "statue" of an insect. 12 minutes

Like to move? Got a scarf, handkerchief or piece of fabric? Join in the jumping, turning and learning as you listen about the Planets and Dwarf Planet Pluto. You'll move fast and you'll move slow, you'll move like Mercury and look like Mars. The music, some of it from Holst's The Planets, is chosen with thought to how the planets themselves appear and move.

Acting activities bring the concepts of goods, services, scarcity, and saving for goals to life.

How many different ways can you say "oh"? Kay demonstrates an "Oh Show," everyone's invited to act out different situations using just the word "oh," and, finally, Kay gives everyone some tips on making up their own stories and encourages them to do so.
