Shape Have students look at pictures of statues, friezes and gargoyles. Ask students to select and remember two or three of their statue shapes. Use poems as stimuli for exploring shape. Explore fully the images of shapes in the poems. Encourage students to vary speed, body parts, qualities, etc.
Size Have students notice that they are all different sizes.
Review with students the idea that they can become different sizes. They can shrink to a small size or grow to a tall size. Review with students that their movements can be made smaller or larger. For example, they can travel using large steps or small steps. Use a story about growing or shrinking as a stimulus for exploring size.
