Grab your tickets and hop aboard the Polar Express for a drama and movement experience. Led by the conductor, children will be led through Polar Express inspired drama and movement as they adventure to the North Pole. Learners are encouraged to wear their pajamas to this program, but it is not required. Class Breakdown: - Learners will be sent a "golden ticket" in advance, which they can cut out and have ready. They should also have a chair set up for the class. - The Polar Express conductor (who will interact in character) will welcome them onto the train, where they will engage in various drama and movement activities that celebrate the holidays on their way to the North Pole. - Drama and movement activities will include riding the train, celebrating the winter, navigating through an elf command centre and, of course, hearing a bell! *Please note that the conductor may be played by a male or female teaching artist. **Reading the "The Polar Express" is not part of this program, so we suggest learners be familiar with the story in advance.
Learning Goals
This is one of our special holiday classes. Learners will engage in dance and dramatic play, self-expression, social-emotional learning, confidence, imagination, storytelling and connection with others.
