Game teaching guide
What children will practise
Practises basic Thai dance gestures (chip, tang wong, pra thao, yok thao), kinds of Thai performance, the parts of a show, and audience manners with reasons. Supports indicator ศ 3.1 ป.2/1 on basic movement and performance.
What's in the worksheet
4 rounds, match 4 pairs each - chip goes with index finger touching the thumb; tang wong goes with raising the arm in a curve - khon goes with performing the Ramakien; blessing dance goes with auspicious events - costume goes with showing the character and era; scenery goes with showing the place - silencing your phone goes with not disturbing performers and audience
How to use it in class
In the gestures round, have everyone stand and copy each pose before answering, about 10 minutes, team mode. Show chip, tang wong and pra thao one at a time, then let teams match. The audience-manners round is a good lead-in before a school performance. When a round goes badly, ask a team that got it right to explain their reasoning. Play it linked to the class and the scores go into the gradebook.
Common sticking points
- Pra thao and yok thao: both involve the foot, so children confuse them. Do each slowly so the difference shows. - Performances and occasions round: rabam and khon are matched to a description, not an occasion, which can puzzle children. Tell them beforehand the round mixes occasions and descriptions. - Performers and music may swap since both can "create mood".
