1st period 2/3/2020

By: Bragan

Today in class we finished a chart showing all of the jobs on the production team to put on a show. We have learned about the production process and the production team so that we know how a show is put on. After we finished our charts, we all came to the floor to review material for our test on Friday.

1-8-20 1st Period

by: Lizzy

Today, we took notes on the songs from The Lion King.  We learned about several new vocabulary words:  polyphony, polyrhythm, cross-rhythm, call and response, repetition and improvisation.  We listened to "Grasslands Chant" from Lion King and tried to pick out examples of our vocabulary words.  Then, we listened to a less tribal song called "How the Other Half Lives" from Thoroughly Modern Millie and tried to pick out the same examples in this different style.

Back on the Map

My students have taken a break from blogging in the past 18 months because we've focused on adding other pieces of technology to our classroom routines.  I'd really like to get back to blogging in the second semester on a daily or a weekly basis.  I'm sure my students will hold my feet to the fire, so we'll be back on the map in 2020!

Taking the Stage-3rd Period

by:  Jack O.

In this unit of theatre 1, we started learning how to dance to the Black Light Show, we also learned about the different types of stages and the stage movements that you're supposed to do while preforming on that type of stage. One of the most interesting thing that we did this unit was learn how to choreograph the cup song. It was REALLY fun. I think Mrs. Bruno did a great job on teaching us the movements. I can't wait to see what the next unit has in store for us!
