Learning Activities 3rd & 4th Grade: Big Time Pantomime Georgia Performance Standards covered: Grade 3, Fine Arts, Theatre Arts: TAES3.3 b; Grade 4, Fine Arts Theatre Arts, Fine Arts Theatre Arts: TAES4.3 b. Objective: Students will play a pantomime game in small groups to see if the other students can guess where the members of the group are (a hockey game, church, an amusement park, etc.) Materials: Lined or blank index cards, pens or pencils. Procedure: 1. Prepare index cards with the names of places and events that the students will pretend to be such as a sporting event, horror movie, rock concert, ballet, an amusement park, a church service, a swimming pool, on a school bus, etc. 2. Discuss how people behave differently when they go to different events. Demonstrate the concept by asking the students to pantomime how they would act if they went to see a play. Then have them pantomime how they would act while at an ice hockey game. 3. Ask for four volunteers and show them a card. The object is for them to pantomime the event with enough specificity that the rest of the class can guess where they are. 4. Once they guess, ask for another four volunteers and hand them a new card. 5. Repeat the process until everyone has had a chance to participate. Assessment: Observe students to see if all are participating. Repeat this activity throughout the year in connection with other subjects. Leslie and Abby Cadabby from Sesame Street 6
