The Mannequin Challenge is a viral Internet video trend where people remain frozen in action like mannequins while a video is recorded.  The hashtag #MannequinChallenge was used for popular social media platforms such as Twitter and Instagram. It is believed that the phenomenon was started by Ed White High school students of Jacksonville, Fl on October 12, 2016. The initial posting has inspired works by other groups, especially professional athletes and sports teams that have posted increasingly complex and elaborate videos.

This was a quick activity that was fun for the students and only required 5 minutes of their time.  The students enjoyed the activity and did a great job.
