This class will meet 12 times, to allow your child to become comfortable with speaking in front of others. 

Class 1 - Each learner will pick their favorite cartoon character, and pretend to be them by saying a few things that their character might say. We will talk about how our voice and our movement can make stories more interesting.

Class 2 - We will continue our discussion of voice and movement by practicing what different characters would look and sound like.

Class 3 - Each learner will be asked to remember a story they have been told, and then retell it to us. 

Class 4 - We will continue working on our stories from our last class by adding more details to make them longer. 

Class 5 - Still working on our Class 3 stories, we will tell them again, using different voices for each character.

Class 6 - Learners will be encouraged to bring their favorite toy or stuffed animal to class and tell us all a story about it. Other learners will be encouraged to ask them questions. We will practice answering others' questions using the voice we have given to our toy/stuffed animal.

Class 7 - In this class we will begin talking about mannerisms, and about how adding them to the characters in their stories will make them more interesting and entertaining.

Class 8 - We will begin practicing mannerisms and attempt to integrate them into our stories.

Class 9 - In this class we will begin adding both voices AND mannerisms into our storytelling.

Class 10 - In this class, I will start telling a story with a few descriptive sentences and characters, using character voices and mannerisms. Then, each learner will take turns adding a little bit more to the story, copying the same voices and mannerisms. At the end of class, I will wrap up the story.

Class 11 - We will continue with our practice of character voices and mannerisms in the same way as in our previous class.

Class 12 - To wrap up the class, each learner will perform a couple lines of character speech, using a unique voice and mannerism. Each of the other students will try to copy their example.
