Help me give my students an amazing drama class with puppets and theater masks.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Turner's classroom raised $463
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
We are looking to rebuild! I am new to this school and am eager to rebuild a once thriving drama program.
My drama class is filled with bright young minds eager to delve into characterization and social emotional learning.
However, that can be incredibly daunting to do as one's self. Puppetry and mask work allows students to deeply explore their emotions and thoughts while maintaining a comfortable distance. Through puppetry and mask work, students can brainstorm, write, and perform plays with enough emotional distance to dive into the wide range of human emotions.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
