14. Living Picture

Použití: Cvičení, Vocabulary

Instructions:

At the beginning of the exercise, it is necessary to determine the environment in which the live image (described objects and persons) will be set. Depending on the number of pupils, it is determined how many will describe the living image and who will create the living image. For example, determine that two pupils will try to use their descriptions to create a picture of a "family dinner" from the other pupils. They will then slowly shape it through the other classmates, who will navigate (determine the location and role) with their description. Once the image is finished, the pupils who are creating the image will try to act out a short scene in their roles. The exercise can be repeated so that more pupils can take turns in the role of image makers.

Example:

Tomas and Tereza have to create a painting on the theme "Family dinner".

"Patrik, there is a chair in the middle of the picture." Patrik goes into the open space and makes a chair out of himself.

Tereza to classmate 2 (Hanka) : "Hanka, there is a woman sitting on the chair. She is drinking tea." Hanka illustrates that she is sitting on the chair and drinking tea.

Tomas to classmate 3 (Jana) : "Jana, there is a table next to the chair." Jana goes into the space and illustrates a table.

Tomas to classmate 4 (Jakub): "Jakub, there is a man standing at the table and eating bread." Jakub then stands next to the table and imitates that he is eating bread.V této chvíli je obraz hotový a ti, kdo ho tvoří mohou zahrát krátkou scénku.

Variations, alternatives:

- After the image has been created, other pupils can describe what makes up the image, who represents what or, for example, what the main characters did before the image was created.

- Let the last remaining pupil describe the picture and thus release the pupils from it
