Daily Project

• Reading Activity - Draw A Story

Campers handed a blank storyboard. Campers create a short story, using illustrations only. No words are written to describe the details of the story. Once campers are done drawing their stories, they switch their stories with the other campers, and the other campers are to guess what the campers story is about using only the illustrations.

• Theater Activity - What Are You Doing?

Camper selects an action to mime in front of the class. Campers choose who goes first; the first camper goes up and ask the camper miming "What are you doing?". The miming camper stops and gives the first camper an action that is anything but what they're actually doing. The first camper goes off and starts miming that action. The second camper comes up and ask the miming camper "What are you doing?". The miming camper gives the second camper an action to go mime. The game continues until all campers are acting. They then guess what the miming camper was actually doing. 

Class Reading

Campers will read for 30 minutes to gain inspiration from selected books, and to see how stories are written that captivate audiences. Worksheets handed out to test campers comprehension skills.

Major Project

Dress rehearsal and last day to work on all major items in class before presentation tomorrow! Campers should be preparing to finalize their costumes, stage, props, lines from script, and plan for presentation. Any changes, edits,  or redirection should happen in camp today, so tonight, campers can finish any items they need to at home, and be able to set up their stages tomorrow. A dress rehearsal will help us get ready for the big day! 

For homework, campers must work on any unfinished costume, stage, and prop items as well as practice their lines from their script. We'll have a small rehearsal in class tomorrow, but campers will need to practice and finalize their items at home to ensure everything is ready for presentation at 3pm tomorrow.
