3D Art, 6th-8th grades - $40

Fundamentals Drama, 6th-8th grades - $20

This class will be focusing on activities, short scene performances, and improv games to help students build self-confidence as they learn drama and speech skills. These acting exercises focus on stage movement, using props, showing emotion through facial expression, movement with music, and speaking in front of an audience. Our goal is to develop effective oral expression and stage presence, as well as learning fundamental theater-related terms and concepts.

 

**This class is perfect for beginners, students who are shy or need more practice speaking and performing, and students who want to perform but can't commit to extra outside rehearsals that the advanced class requires. We will have a short non-speaking skit in the end of the semester party, and will not require any outside rehearsals ***except for the last 2 dress rehearsals, the last day of co-op and day of production.

​

​​*** THERE WILL BE REHEARSALS OUTSIDE OF CLASS and students are required to be there when they are scheduled. These rehearsals will be 1 to 2 hours per week. This is a commitment and a team effort, just like any class or sport. Students who continually miss with no prior notice may lose their part or not be allowed back the following semester. Toward the end of the semester, there will be a few rehearsals that will extend to 3 or 4 hours in length as they practice in full costume with props, sound, and lighting changes. If we need props and costumes, I will always try to borrow items before making purchases to save everyone money and storage space. 

​​In order for your child to be pre-approved for this class, you will need to email your child's request to stepupcoop@gmail.com by June 13th. Final placement into the appropriate class for each child will be at the board's discretion and placement notification will be sent via email prior to registration*​​
