상자 속 인형극: 플렉스 클래스

In this class, learners will have a chance to express themselves through visual and dramatic arts, entertain themselves and their family, and in the end, will have a portable puppet theater that can be easily adapted to new stories and dramatic play. Learning will happen through short instructional videos,
illustrated instructional outlines and classroom messages. I will post instructions in the beginning of each week, and check in throughout the week to see the progress of the projects. There will be additional options given at each step to make sure the show created by your learner is truly unique.
Week 1: Introduction, choosing your show and creating your characters - stick puppets.
Week 2: Creating your theater from a shoe box. Optional: decorating the outside of your theater and making a curtain. Set design - the setting for your show.
Week 3: Changing the costumes of your stick puppets. Optional: puppets that move by wiggling their arms and legs - marionettes.
Week 4: Performing your show and playing with your puppet theater.
This is a flexible schedule class. There will be no live meetings, but frequent interaction between the teacher and the learners is expected. I will be posting videos, instructions, photos and discussion prompts in the classroom several times each week, Monday-Wednesday. All learners will respond with their own posts, pictures and videos as they are completing their projects.
While parents can certainly get involved and families can have fun together, young students will be able to complete most of steps with little parental help. Week 2 involves some cutting which I encourage parents to help with. Students will be asked to post the pictures of their projects in progress in the classroom, and to participate in classroom messaging discussion. Students are expected to post in the classroom frequently, and can even conduct their rehearsals through the recording feature in Outschool classroom.
