Drama

Students begin by learning about the expectations of a performance space and of performers within it. In Drama, we aim to develop a safe and encouraging environment for students to share and participate and perform in. 

Each week students focus on a different performance skill including improvisation, structuring a story, performance skills (voice, movement, mime, gesture), and use of stagecraft elements (costumes, props, and set). As the unit comes to a close, students devise a performance based on a combination of all of the skills that have been taught throughout the unit.
