The sixth graders just completed their first unit--a comprehensive introduction to the stage and acting. They learned a ton of concepts: stage geography, stage vocabulary, pantomime, voice technique, characterization basics, scripting, and directed and performed an original acting scene, written by their group. It's been an intense and fun first two months of drama class.
The students performed their final acting scenes, based on characters they created, in a scene they wrote. From the initial inspiration: a random picture of a random person, they created a silent history (backstory of the person's personality and life), all the way through scripting a written scene in proper play format, to the final product: a scene costumed, directed, and performed by the students, they were the beginning and end of this project.
Below is the written script created by Liz S., Jamie K., and Ava T. in period 6 and their performance that brings it to life. Enjoy!
