In this one-time class learners will play an acting game, hear and add funny details to a story, choose their characters and gain confidence and public speaking skills as they perform a play with their new friends.
Class experience
We will start our class with playful introductions and warm-ups for our bodies, voices and imaginations based on student suggestions. Next, I will tell our story (The Billy Goats Gruff) including two options for how the story ends. Students will choose the character(s) they wish to play, and we will learn our lines and practice acting out the story. Students will be encouraged to personalize their lines and characters, and to add their own unique details to the story and the ending. Then...
Students will: 1. Use their bodies, faces and voices to express themselves and their unique ideas as characters in a story. 2. Work collaboratively with classmates as they play, explore and bring the story to life. 3. Design a costume through drawing or gathering dress up pieces they may have at home.
Please have some paper and something to draw with (pencils, markers or crayons). Dress up clothes to be a goat or a troll are OPTIONAL.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
