My Project

We have a new fine arts program at my school site. One of the difficulties in starting something new is not having all the tools you need. We have been making wonderful progress over the past two years, but we find ourselves in a bind when it comes to finding good monologues, duets, and solo pieces for dramatic contests or class projects.

My hope is that by building our own theatre library in the classroom, students will be able to find most of what they need right there.

This process will promote literacy in the classroom due to the sheer amount of resources we will have. The Shakespeare collection will begin with A Midsummer Night's Dream, hoping to produce that someday.
