Drama 2,3,4 - 11/5/13

Drama classes 3 and 4 read through our works for the Christmas presentation.  I am very excited about the variety the kids have come up with!  The opportunity to present in front of the other classes gives us the chance to bring together many of the pieces we have been working on this year in a practical application for life.  We discussed many of the meanings and unfamiliar words used in older English, along with some tone and background.

Assignments drama 4 -  all should work on vocabulary (understanding and pronouncing)
Curtis - John Adams letter #83
Mitchell - Benjamin Franklin's speech to the Continental Congress (perhaps pare it down some)
Oren - Patrick Henry's "Liberty or Death..."
Jacob - Intro to Common Sense
Suzie - Abigail Adams letter #81
Ellie - still working
Eden - still working
Zoe - George Whitefield's sermon (pare it down)
Rachael - still working (perhaps collaboration with Oren)


Assignments drama 3 -
Each child is to make sure they know and understand all the words in their poems and begin to memorize.



Drama 2 class began to work on our presentation piece.  It is shrouded in surprise and many have asked that I send their assignments to other family members to make sure that Mom has a treat on our presentation day...please check with your student about their wishes and then send me and email from the account they wish their parts to be sent to :)  baggsfamily5@gmail.com  Thank you!

Assignment drama 2- please print the piece for your student to bring into class
