Instructional Ideas
- After teaching joints and their movements, call out a joint type and have pupils move their bodies the correct way for that specific joint
Classroom Considerations
- Turn on closed captioning so learners can follow along despite the speed of the narrator's speech
- Video ends at 8:25; the rest is a summary of concepts and credits
- This video is hosted on YouTube
Pros
- Engaging due to the wittiness of the narrator and his ability to relate to high schoolers (his dancing at prom, in this case)
- Can view closed captioning in English, Arabic, and German, or it can auto translate to a plethora of languages
Cons
- None
