Mirroring and Isolating the Body
step 1
Student pairs take turns acting as mirror and leader (the “mirror” will copy the movements of the “leader”).
step 2
From Mapping the Space activity, select parts of the body to isolate their pattern in. Start with an arm, then head, hips, or a foot.
step 3
Play and pause music to determine beginning and pausing (switching) points.
