Readers' Theatre Club

Readers' Theatre is a a type of drama performed by "readers" who read from a script and do not have to memorize lines. Performed with minimal costumes, sets and props, readers' theatre can be not only a great introduction to theatre for kids, but it's also a great way to practice one's oral reading skills, build confidence, and have fun with friends at the same time!
This summer, Miss Sara is leading a Readers' Theatre Club for students entering grades 2-4. Each week participants will play theatre games, tackle different scripts based on well-known children's books, and make crafts to supplement the stories we're telling together. The Club will meet six times over the course of the summer, and each meeting will culminate with a performance for family and friends. While this is a drop-off program, parents/caregivers are asked to return 15 minutes before the end of each class (at 3:15) so they can see the show!
Students must be fluent readers who have completed first grade. Registration is required and will open June 1.
