Guide students to pick a word that fits them today.
First, ask students to help you fill in the blanks. Add to or change anything on the list.
As ___________________ as a Tiger
As ___________________ as a Elephant
As ___________________ as the Sun
As ___________________ as the Ocean
As ___________________ as a Tree
As ___________________ as a Snake
As ___________________ as a Kitty-cat
Second, guide students to walk about the room. As they walk, ask them to walk like each of the descriptive words (NOT the animal or object). “Walk as if you are feeling ‘fierce.’” “Walk as if you were really, really ‘tall.’”
Finally, guide students to choose the one word that best describes them today. Take one last walk and then sit and share which word each chose.
