Play some lively music and encourage children to move their bodies in interesting and fun ways. Use words such as sashay, plie´ or skedaddle. Teach the movement for each word. For example, sashay means to move to the side by extending one foot and then bringing the other foot up to touch it, then extending and sliding again – sort of like galloping sideways. Plie´ means to place both feet together, pointing outwards and then slowly bend your knees. Skedaddle means to move freely, however you choose. Call out the movements and ask the children to respond by changing their actions to match your words.
