Popcorn

Description

Everyone finds themselves a nice spot, and squat down. The teacher now talks the group through this exercise. Everyone is a piece of corn, the floor is a big pan, and we`re going to make popcorn. We slowly start heating the pan; as the pan gets hotter, corn starts to `pop`. A player can `pop` by jumping up, clapping hands above their head, and saying `pop`.

Make sure the `popping` starts gradually, `popping` is a group thing, and in the end, `popping` should stop.

Variations

Forget to take the pan off the fireplace, and have the popcorn start charring.

 

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you too can become great --- Mark Twain
