Pantomime is the art of conveying a story through bodily movement without words. It uses gestures, facial expressions, and actions to communicate. Some advantages of pantomime include engaging students, developing communication and focus skills, and serving as a warm-up. Disadvantages include needing willingness from the group and potential dependence on one member. When using pantomime, teachers should focus on details, provide direction, relate it to goals, and ensure student engagement.
