Set the Stage!
Funded Sep 12, 2024The items I've received will be put to such good use! The look of excitement on the kids faces, seeing the prize options and fidget toys was wonderful. The stage makeup kits + fun character face masks will be used during various units this year, as we act out different stories.
The large chart paper that sticks to the wall will be used in all units, when I'm introducing various steps and elements of our work, in addition to times when students can come up and write answers directly onto the paper - a fun, different way of gathering understanding.
And the cleaning supplies? Priceless! Gotta keep it clean 🤣
Oh, and the finger puppets! Kids of all ages LOVE these, and are a great entry-point into creating characters and voices. We will be using them in our Puppetry Unit this year.
There was a small 'snafu' in getting the large mirror - but it's en route 🤞🏼and I can't wait for the kids to be able to really get a full visual of how their characters look.
Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏🏼🎭😊”

Drama Kids Need Costumes!
Funded Mar 25, 2024It's been SO exciting to receive all of the Amazon boxes at school! All my students are very curious about the new, cool costume and prop items that await their use!
In just a couple of weeks, we'll be starting a new/final Unit for the year, that will involve 'stations' around the room, where students will get to work with, play and explore using Props, Costumes, Puppets and Technical items. Many of the new items from this project will be included at these stations!
It's been very moving, to see how many people care about the Arts, and Theatre in particular, and how they recognize the importance of creativity and storytelling in school.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart :)”
