Purpose:  A simple intro warm up to help everyone break out of their shell. While having tons of fun, we will practice our observation skills and ability to process context cues within a virtual environment.  

Learning Goals:

  • Encourage students to never lose a sense of the original gesture in their exaggerations.
  • Learn about character development, taking small traits and enhancing them to extremes.

Procedure:

1. All participants must have their cameras on. They should also be looking at everyone in the virtual classroom using the grid view. 

2.  The first player will begin by demonstrating a gesture. 

3.  The next player takes it over and makes it even bigger.

4.  This continues all the way around until the last person takes it to the EXTREME.

5.  After a couple times with just movement, the players can add a sound as well.
