WHAT TO DO
Teach the sequence over a few weeks till they know it well. Explain to class that you will lead the sequence. That you will begin by saying and doing the first posture, upon which they will do and say nothing . Then, when you have said and done the second posture in the sequence they will say and do the first posture. In other words they will be ONE BEHIND.
Repeat.
You could ask one of the children to lead.
