Student and Teacher Testimonials:
"My favorite part was making puppets and working on the plays. I learned how not to be shy and be open about the play."
- 5th Grade Student / Francis Scott Key "The thing I like most about your class is when you have students come up and pretend to be puppets. In your class, I have learned how to be creative and smart. You make shadow theater class fun." - 4th Grade Student / Francis Scott Key "My favorite part was doing the warm-ups because I liked that we were able to release our wiggles in class. I feel happy about the performance because I showed the audience the hard work I put into the play and the audience appreciated it." - 5th Grade Student / Francis Scott Key "I really love your shadow theater activity. It's my favorite activity in school."
- 4th Grade Student / Francis Scott Key "Engaging, energetic, positive and experienced! Full experience of light and shadow - hands on with a projector and props." - 3rd Grade Teacher / Leonard Flynn Elementary |
"I learned that even though we're just kids, we can do something pretty big!"
- 5th Grade Student / Buena Vista "I love your class so much. I love your class because it's like you make your puppets come to life. You add comedy, they have different voices and their own personalities." - 4th Grade Student / Francis Scott Key "The overall experience allowed a lot of my students to get out of their comfort zone and to do something they would have probably never had the opportunity to do."
- 3rd Grade Teacher / Leonard Flynn Elementary "I think that having students work together to present also helped build some community and team work in the classroom. It was also nice to create an artwork that came to life--I think many students were surprised (in a good way) when they saw their work on the screen and how it moved and could have a personality." - 6th Grade Teacher / Horace Mann |
