Provide a metaview, lifting students into a wider view of the concept. Use another medium (not reading or writing) to connect students' personal knowing to the concept (i.e. visual arts, music, movement, metaphor, etc.) Involve learners in reflective production that blends the emotional and the cognitive.
Following Nonverbal Directions
Objective: The students will use kinesthetic motions to give nonverbal directions to a specific place in the school.
Activity: Place students into groups of three. One of the students will draw a slip of paper that has a specific place written on it. Then the student will try to convey where the place is by using nonverbal kinesthetic motions (charades).
Evaluation: Participation in activity.
