Puppet shows

This is a puppet show by edmontonpl. That is Edmonton Public Library, a puppet show by edmontonpl is usually pretty good. As a rule young children love puppet shows. Again this is low tech, however it opens the door to a range of activities, reading, acting the parts, drawing and painting. If a puppet show is performed by your students, maybe it could be uploaded to You Tube.



As you all know I am not one to gossip, but I did find this site and it looks great to me ! Puppet theatre Often children enjoy making things with their hands. Somehow it seems far more satisfying to them if they have made it themselves. Cardboard boxes are easily available and can be decorated to suit. Sometimes activities do not have to cost lots of money. Children can sometimes become great story tellers. If a puppet theatre was made classes could preform their own plays. Puppets can be made out of cardboard and painted. The tale of the gingerbread man could be retold. I am sure the younger students would enjoy this sort of activity. Scenery could be added to any play. This is where artistic students could play a role. These days the Internet is the way to search for material and ideas. Younger students might be able to find material, resources, and ideas. This would also improve their keyboard skills.
