The teacher will ask for volunteers to act in front of the class. The teacher will pick an emotion or thing for the students to act out. The rest of the class will guess what the student is trying to portray. This activity requires critical thinking for both the demonstrator and the audience. The actor has to figure out to express themselves in a creative way that other children will understand.
