Course Introduction:
A joyful, developmentally aligned drama course where children sing, dance, and act to build a simple script from “Meet the Bears” to an Animal Friends parade. Through playful rehearsal and small‑group collaboration, learners practice songs (“Making Juice,” “Fruit Song”), character movements, and scene sequencing, culminating in a cheerful class performance.
Learning Outcome:
- Integrated Performance Skills: Children combine singing, dancing, and acting to present short, scripted scenes.
- Story Sequencing and Characterisation: Children sequence beginning–middle–end scenes and use clear character movements and voices.
- Small‑Group Collaboration: Children rehearse in teams, take turns, follow cues, and interact supportively during ensemble performances.
