Practice Your Pantomiming Skills

• Pantomime means acting without words through facial expressions, gesture and movement.  
• Watch this YouTube video about Pantomime from CVESD theatre teacher Mrs. Montgomery: https://youtu.be/oHY0TK4piwY (See below)
• Since we’re likely spending more time at home, let’s find ways to give some much-needed attention to the every day objects around us. 

• Activity: Utilize Objects Around the House – Find 5 everyday items around your house. Pick each one up and use it as you normally would. Notice the weight, the mass and how you typically handle the object. Put the item down then attempt to pantomime the object you were just holding. Take notice of how you create space for the object and how you interact with it. Video record yourself with the object and without the object and make observations in the way you move.  
• You can also do the challenge Mrs. Montgomery mentioned at the end of her video. 
• If you do the challenge, share a video of it on the VAPA flipgrid.
