My Project

The students will use the puppet and the puppet show stand to help with language development skills, social emotional skills, and story-telling development. The puppets will encourage creativity and use of their imagination in their pretend play as they act out scenarios, books and events from their daily life. The possibilities are endless. Puppets and using them to act out and repeat stories encourage story telling skills, language skills and also their imagination and creativity. It will create more opportunities for dialogues between the students and teachers and a better understanding of educational lessons in the classroom.
