MIME CONVERSATION GAME
« on: March 10, 2016, 12:01:46 PM »
I will try to revise this game over time. It is based on an activity I read about in Drama Techniques. If you can figure out a way to make this game good for middle schoolers (and share it in this thread), I will love you forever.

(1) Students learn what miming is.
(2) You show them the pictures of difficult words. They try to memorize them.
(3) You shuffle the little slips of paper (from the word doc file)
(4) One member of a team selects a paper and then mimes that scenario while another member of the same team tries to guess what is going on.
(5) Each team is given 30 seconds.

Note: The slips of paper are numbered so that I can eventually include slides in the PPT with sounds that correspond to the slips of paper, i.e. to add extra sound effects to the performances that the students will do.

Here is the mime video that you should include in the same folder as the PPT file. I am including it in this post because the file would have been too large to include had I tried to attach it with the other files (space limitations, etc.).
