I can work creatively and cohesively in groups both in school and in the world at large. I can apply the principals of improvisational theater to both social and academic interactions. I can use games such as Slide Show and Pick a Play as tools to help me place historical events in a specific context.

Our program is designed to foster teamwork within the classroom. The workshop consists of activities in which students work together to build scenes and stories. The workshop begins with a brief discussion of the principles of improv, then the instructor leads warm up activities, and the students will participate in a series of improv activities centered around historical figures and material. This program is specifically designed for 4th grade. The academic topics addressed in this workshop can be based around topics currently being covered in the classroom. This program will cover the importance of perspective both in history and in improvisational theater. For example, this program will highlight the idea that within a scene, one's perspective may be different from another player's but in order to establish a solid base reality they should work to share a perspective within the scene.
