Improv for elementary kids? Acting for kindergartners? What are you thinking? Before every class comes into my room, I have them circle up. This allows everyone to feel included. It allows everyone to see and hear each other. A circle can help build a community and allow students to work as a team. In my classroom, I incorporate improv and acting into my daily activities. Students are encouraged to make things up on the spot through games such as ONE WORD STORY. Each student gives a word to make a story with characters, events, and a theme. A circle is necessary for everyone to be a part of the story so they can hear what is happening in this on the spot, made up story. I have found in certain games where students are to listen, respond, and participate, a circle can often "collapse." By "collapse," I mean that the circle tends to meet when students are trying to see what is happening around the circle with other students. This rug would allow my students to remain in a circle throughout instruction of games or activities where it is critical to listen and watch each other. I want everyone to be able to be engaged and be encouraged not only by myself, but also from other students to create.
