Drama and Math

This week, we participated in a few activities that incorporated drama and math. One activity from this week that I particularly enjoyed was the "living shapes" activity, where we used our bodies to form different shapes and then also had to show movements like rotations, reflections, and slides with our bodies. This was a great way to learn about different shapes in a way that was interactive and cooperative and it really requires students to think more deeply about what each movement word means and how they can represent it with their bodies. I can see students really enjoying this activity because it allows them to move around and be active, which they may not often get the chance to do in a subject like math, especially for students who are kinesthetic learners.
