I enjoyed adding in the bean bag to the word play today. The implications of this are huge. I could see how this could be applied to teaching children storytelling or writing as well. I find as I free myself with the exercises it becomes much easier to just be there. Allowing the stories to just come or bubble up instead of forcing them.
For me, the bean bag added urgency and speed. I actually appreciated this new element. I do feel like I wish I had time to write down all the very beneficial exercises we do in class, but by the time I leave I can't adequately write them all down.
