Diverse Perspectives: Costumes & Art Supplies for American History Plays

Help me give my students an experience with drama! Students will be writing their own plays and funding this project will provide costumes so students can have an authentic, immersive theatre experience.

  • $1,008 goal

My Project

Part of our 5th grade social studies curriculum is to "Use primary sources to craft an argument representing different perspectives during the period leading to the American Revolution (for example, men and women who were Loyalists, Patriots, Native Americans, enslaved people)." I plan to put my students into four groups: Loyalists, Patriots, Native Americans, and enslaved people, and have them research primary source documents to determine what their groups' perspective on the events leading up to the American Revolution would be. They will then write an argument and turn the argument into a play representing their group's perspective.

After writing the plays, students will direct and act in the plays for the school community and the nearby elderly care facility.

This project will fund the needed costumes for these four plays. Not having to find or make these costumes will enable students to focus their time on learning the content while still allowing them to have a full theatre experience. It will also provide paint and other materials to create our play settings/backdrops.
