Puppetry
for Educators: PERFORMANCE
|
Puppets
when used in a classroom setting can capture the imagination
of a student and bring any lesson to life. The idea
of using puppets to teach can be daunting at first.
This workshop will help educators learn to become comfortable
using puppets in the classroom. Mike Harding of Applefun
Puppetry will share his experience and provide tips
on using puppetry effectively. Then, in a safe environment,
participants will be encouraged to try out some puppets
and do a little performing. Special attention will be
given to using improvisational techniques with puppets.
No prior performance experience is necessary.
