Summer Fun/Life Skills: Junior Comedy Class- Let's Learn to Tell Jokes!
What's included
1 live meeting
25 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
This has the same class format and content as the Wacky Wednesday Comedy Class, just offered on a different day. It's a fun-filled, one-time class that teaches your learner important tips on joke telling AND being a great audience member. Students will get to share 1 or 2 jokes if they wish. We will begin by greeting one another and meeting our puppet helpers, followed by an ice-breaker joke told by the teacher and a little time to get to know one another. Students can share one joke at this time if they wish. Next, we will learn some joke telling skills and see some examples and non-examples Then, we will get to share more jokes, and discuss how we used our skills. Throughout the lesson, we will keep a sharp eye out for Froggy and Monkey (my puppet helpers) to give us clues for the answer to a riddle. We will also learn about a wacky, weird creature in each class! At the end of class, I will sing a quick song (those who wish can join) to remind us of our entertaining joke-telling skills. I can't wait to laugh and learn with your awesome young comedians!
