Leftovers
Duration: 7:52
Instructions (select arrow)
Write the numbers 1-10 (or 1-20) along the top of your paper.
Record your starting number (we used 100 but you can change the starting number to any number you like).
Player 1 chooses a divisor that will result in leftovers (remainders).
Player 1 works out the solution to their problem (in this case, Barbara worked out 100/7).
Player 1 collects the leftovers (remainders) as points.
The chosen number (in this case, 7) is crossed off the list of options.
A new starting number is determined by subtracting the leftovers from the previous starting number (e.g. 100 - 2 = 98).
Play continues until there are no more moves that can be made.
The winner is the person with the most leftovers.

Once you have completed your chosen puppet, think about the way your animal moves or communicates, including:
the tempo (speed)
dynamics (volume)
tone colour (the way it sounds).
For example, the snake may be slow, soft and perhaps have a hiss.
Create a short scene about your morning routine with your puppet getting ready for a day in your life. You may use mime or your voice and speech as well.
For example, the puppet is lying down asleep to begin, then it slowly wakes up. Suddenly it realises it is late and jumps out of bed. It walks into the bathroom and washes its face before peering in the mirror at itself.
