| PROGRAM DETAILS |
|
| Literature and language arts form the basis for this residency that also teaches students to follow directions, improvise, use their imaginations and play with phonemes and rhyme schemes. Students dramatize stories, sing songs and dance while immersing themselves in the elements of literature. Terry combines proverbs and body percussion to show the rhythmic aspects of language. This workshop makes language and story come alive for students and can be customized for the literature being used in your classroom. Children are engaged in movement activities so a large empty room is essential; access to a piano is preferred but not required. |
