WORD PERFECT

Another of the things my students loved to do in my Physical Education
classes was to spell words, using their entire bodies.I would first give
them a letter of the alphabet to form with their bodies and then they
would progress to making a full word with the help of four friends.
The ultimate was to develop a sentence by the formation of some
twenty students, and see if I could read their sentence!
This was a wonderful learning tool, because they almost always began
spelling their words from "right to left" instead of from "left to right."
Forming these letters with their bodies was a wonderful way to let
them know that they were indeed,"fearfully and wonderfully made".
Not in just a word or a sentence, but for a lifetime!
They were being renewed by the transforming of their minds,..... and their bodies!
