The Machine - Project of How
You keep repeating the sound/movement until everyone in the group is connected, making it a giant moving noisy machine!
How to run it
- One person starts making a sound and a move- ment, eg a “woop”-sound, flapping one arm.
- The next person connects to the first part in our machine, also making a sound and a movement.
- You keep repeating the sound/movement until everyone in the group is connected, making it a giant moving noisy machine! Works best with big groups.
- Instructions One person starts making a sound and a move- ment, eg a “woop”-sound, flapping one arm.
- You keep repeating the sound/movement until everyone in the group is connected, making it a giant moving noisy machine!
