Active Learning

Elementary students explore the fundamentals of theatre arts through dance, learning about stage direction, audience and performer etiquette, and gaining a stronger sense of self confidence through acting, singing, and dancing.  Active Learning originate their own dance rendition scripts from popular musicals and add a moral lesson to each play.  Middle school students practice their acting skills through spoken word, song, and acting in their music videos.  Students take the initiative to create their own story, theme and choreography for each video/performance. All lessons are aligned with the California Arts Standards in Dance (DJ lessons are linked to the Music Standards).
