Creating, Performing,
and Participating in
The Arts Key Idea: Students will: create and perform theatre pieces as well as improvisational drama. They will understand and use the basic elements of theatre in their characterizations, improvisations, and play writing. Students will engage in individual and group theatrical and theatre-related tasks, and will describe the various roles and means of creating, performing, and producing theatre. |
|
|
Understanding The Cultural Key Idea:
Students will Gain knowledge about past and present cultures as expressed
through theatre. They will interpret how theatre reflects the beliefs,
issues, and events of societies past and present. |
