  • 1.  Elementary ensemble building on Zoom

    Posted 08-25-2020 11:09
    Hi folks!

    I am looking for some fun ensemble-building games for ELEMENTARY LEVEL (specifically 3rd grade right now, but I teach EC-8th so I'll take any suggestions!) that can be done with a group of 10-12 students on Zoom. I have some ideas, but am looking for new ones and all I can find are high school-related posts!  I'd love any/all of your brilliant suggestions.

    Thanks!!

    I LOVE the TABLEAU Lesson plans from DRamanotebook.com for Ensemble Work. YOu can use them with just about any grade, and the students MUST work together well to make a successful Tableau. I also use the GAME JUMP IN JUMP OUT to begin many of my sessions.

    The Distance Ensemble Experiences units which I contributed to this Community have been used with ages 8-senior citizens. The documents containing the ensemble experience is a Word document so that you can tweak them to your needs. Every time I lead an experience on a digital platform, I pivot in real time. Constantly changing the experience. Hope that can use the created Distance Ensemble Experiences which I created. 
    BTW my published Theatre books contain many experiences which can be adapted for our virtual educational world. 
    Best for this academic year.
