Get up and move! This week learners can dance their favorite equations, math symbols and concepts. Whatever topic is of interest or in the process of being learned is a great one to figure out the dance moves that go with it. I recommend taking 5 to 10 of your favorite moves and making it into a mathematically choreographed dance.
Here is one approach:
- Pile 1: Make flash cards for the vocabulary, plots, or concepts that you want to move to.
- Pile 2: Make flash cards for the body parts that you want to move with (hands, feet, legs, arms, whole body, etc.)
- Draw a card from each pile, turn on the music, and get some moves.
- Note: you can play with sequences, beats, or number of repeats as well. (This works in a virtual environment as well – have a dance break!)
Here is an example generator I made:
