Question

You have seen how Maxwell describes Mij the otter’s feelings and thoughts by watching him. Play the game of dumb charades. Take turns to express a feeling or thought silently, through gestures. Let the class speak out their guesses about the feelings or thoughts you are trying to express.

Answer 1

The Gesture:

I am sitting on the floor. I suddenly freeze, my eyes wide and fixed on something in the corner. I slowly lower my head, my ears seem to twitch towards a sound, and I carefully creep forward on my hands and knees, holding my breath. My whole body is tense and ready to pounce.
