⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great PowerPoint explaining mime! Also includes several mime activities for students to try out. Thanks!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exactly what I was looking for to use with my 8th grade gifted education students studying theatre arts this quarter! I can't wait to "dig in" to it! :-)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was my primary resource for teaching mime and pantomime in my grade 7/8 drama class this year. I introduced the unit with this resource and then we watched some 'how-to' videos and did our own classic mimes. Good resource! Thanks.
