Fundamental I

1st MOMENT:

– Presentation

Teacher, put the students in a circle and start by saying your name and a little about yourself. Then ask each student to share information about themselves, such as: name, age, hobbies, something unusual and funny they did on vacation.

2ND MOMENT:

– Robot dynamics

Material:
– masking tape

Objective: To work on motor coordination, logic and attention skills, introducing concepts of sequence and precision, in a fun and practical way.

Materials:

Masking tape (for creating paths and signs on the floor)
Large space (classroom or courtyard)

Step by step:

1. Environment preparation:

● Use masking tape to create a path on the floor. You can make straight or zig-zag lines, like a simple obstacle course, or even form circles and squares to represent different areas the robots must reach.

2. Explanation of the dynamics:
● Explain to the children that one will transform into a robot and follow the commands of the “programmer” (teacher).
● Tell them that, just like the robot, they need to follow the commands precisely and sequentially to complete the route.
● Example of an opening sentence: “Robot, let’s take the path marked with masking tape, but to do so, I need you to follow the instructions exactly!”

3. Commands and movements:

● Start giving simple commands for the child (robot) to follow, always using the lines and marks made with masking tape. Some command suggestions:
● “Robot, take 3 steps forward”
● “Robot, turn right and go to the end of the line.”
● “Robot, take 3 steps back!”
● “Robot, follow the zigzag path to the end!”
● “Robot, touch the ground with both hands, then move forward!”
● Children must follow the order of commands precisely, as if they were robots performing programmed tasks.

4. Variety of commands:

● To make the dynamics more interesting, alternate between body movement commands (jump, run, turn) and directional commands (walk forward, backward, turn left/right).

5. Final reflection:

● After the activity, gather the children together and talk about what it was like to follow the commands.
● Ask: “How did you feel as a robot?”, “Was it easy or difficult to follow the commands?”, “What happens when we don’t follow the correct order?”
● Explain the importance of following instructions correctly, as a robot needs to follow commands to perform its tasks.

Note: in each round, change the student (robot) so that everyone can participate.

1st MOMENT:

– Presentation

Teacher, put the students in a circle and start by saying your name and a little about yourself. Then ask each student to share information about themselves, such as: name, age, hobbies, something unusual and funny they did on vacation.

2ND MOMENT:

– Mime dynamics

Objective: To stimulate creativity, teamwork and knowledge about the activities that children usually do during the holidays.

How it works:

1 – Division of Groups:

● Divide the class into 3 or 4 groups, depending on the number of students.
● Each group will be in a different area of the room.

2 – Activity Explanation:

● Explain to the students that one person from each group will do a mime, representing an activity that is usually done during the holidays, such as traveling, going to the beach, playing in the park, visiting relatives, etc.
● The rest of the group will be responsible for trying to guess what is being represented, but without using words or sounds, just gestures and body expressions.

3 – Examples of Mime Activities:

● Swimming in the pool
● Travel by plane
● Play football
● Playing with friends in the park
● Go to the movies
● Ride a bike
● Visiting grandparents or relatives

4 – How to Play:

● The student who is going to do the mime must think of a holiday activity (among those you suggested or others that he or she chooses) and represent it only with gestures and expressions.
● The rest of the group has 1 minute to try to guess what their partner is imitating.
● Each group has 2 to 3 minutes to mime and guess.

5 – Variation (Optional):

● If any group manages to guess, they can mime it to the other group, and so on. The group that guesses the most activities correctly wins!

6 – Finalization:

● At the end, you can have a short chat about the different ways to enjoy the holidays and what each person likes to do most during this period.
