Given our challenges with action and reaction we decided it might make things a bit accessible for the students if we had images that they could abstract movement from to create their action and reaction movement. I went through and found images that contained motion.
By doing this we were able to talk to the students about how they could abstract or create motion from the ideas in the picture. We went through all of the pictures and improvised different ways and then showed some from the class that were unique and different.
From here we split them into groups and let them go to work with creating their action reaction, Rube Goldberg Machines. At the the end of class we presented out work and then gave a few ideas for things we could work on or add the next day before we presented them to our first grade reading buddy class.
Overall it was a lot more positive of an experience for the students.
