Summary
A friendly, follow-along art activity: Tate Kids shows how to make art made by moving your whole body, one clear step at a time. Pause and rewind so a whole class can keep up, and let every artist put their own spin on it. Free on the official Tate Kids YouTube channel from Tate, the UK's national art museums (32 min).

Discussion questions
Discussion
Make it together, then talk about the choices you made.
- What was the first step, and what materials did you need to make art made by moving your whole body?
- Which step was trickiest, and what helped you get it right?
- How is your version different from the one in the video, or from a classmate's?
- What would you change or add if you made it again?
Quick work-a-long
Art words: materials, shape, texture, design, detail.
Try it: 1) Follow along and make art made by moving your whole body. 2) Make a second version and change one thing -- a colour, a material, or the size -- to make it your own.
