Today in lesson we were doing lots of different exercises which involved us changing the ways we moved around the room and also reacting to certain things in a different ways to how we usually would.

The first exercise we did was changing the ways we would walk in different scenarios.
For example, when Andy said "...and now it's cold, freezing! Like it is in Finland..." the whole class changed their body language. I tensed up, hunched over and hugged myself tightly, I also didn't walk like I usually do-(quite big strides)  I only moved the bottoms of my legs.

Another thing Andy said was "...and now you're home late and your mums going to be angry with you and ground you..." when Andy said this, there were loads of different reactions. Some people sped up and was running around the room, desperate to get home, and some stayed calm.
I stayed calm and chilled for this part of the exercise while others were rushing around me.

I also noticed that when Andy said "...Now it's hot, too hot..." straight away nearly everyone's weight was held in their knees and their shoulders, so they were hunched over whilst bending their legs. Everyone moved a lot slower too and hung their heads lower.

After this exercise we play "Party Quirks".
Party Quirks is where someone is having a party, in this game Heta for hosting the party.
And Andy gave everyone else a weird little quirk that they would have to improvise with at Heta's Finlish party.
Some of the quirks were; someone was invisible, someone was scared of everything, someone thought they were outside and the weather keeps changing, someone had just been to the dentist and so on.
And what Heta would have to do is guess what everyone's quirk was.
