Presentation
Introduction
Prepare a child’s chair with sufficient space around
it. Invite 3-4 children to come participate in your lesson
by telling them you have something to show them. Show
each child where exactly to sit and once the children are
seated, you sit so that you can see them all, they all can
see you, and yet you are not in front of them. Call their
attention to the chair and tell them that you are going to
show them how to carry a chair.
Lifting: Stand on the side of the chair so that the back
of the chair is on the left side of your body and the
seat of the chair is directly in front of your legs.

of the chair closest to your body.
2. Bend your knees until they touch the seat of the
chair.
3. Wrap your left arm around the back of the chair.
4. Place your left thumb on the seat of the chair at the
center of the backside of the seat.

seat.

the front of the seat.
