Introducing Puppets in The Classroom
Introducing Puppets in The Classroom
As the best puppet theater has little dialogue and a lot of action, it is
important to find opportunities for action scenes, as is the case
of the fight in our first bullying show.
It is important to note that the value of this activity lies in the process, in
which children develop their creativity, building puppets, sceneries, sound
tracks and props, socializing, collaborating to solve challenges,
respecting the opinions of their colleagues and learning to obey the
director. Therefore, it is not essential to mount a complete play. Several
short scenes will give the opportunity to practice the basic elements of
Puppet Theater and also have fun, one of the objectives of this theater that
makes the child come to school with enthusiasm and at the same time be
stimulated to study and improve their school performance.
