My Apologies
Dear Parents and Students,
I am very sorry that I have not been keeping up with the blog for a very long time now. I am here to tell you that we are back in business. With all the handouts and assignments that are about to be going out to each and every student, it is very important to make sure that everyone have access at all times to all the things they need. I will be posting everything you student needs from the new semester later today. Also, I will return to updating this website everyday. I am sorry that I slipped. I will get back on this today! I hope you all are doing well out there in the technological universe!
Namaste,
Christopher Eastland

Class Activities
Before the last duet performances were presented, student learned about the actors' basic body positions.
It is very important that the students study this and be able to separate it from the Areas of the Stage and the Stage Terminology.
Once this chart was covered, the last duets performed in all classes. When everyone had performed, the students played "Honey, if you love me, smile." This game has been introduced to the students so that they can learn how to not break character when performing. The students make a circle in the room and one stands in the middle. The student in the middle is it. They must walk up to someone else in the circle and say, "Honey, if you love me, smile." While they say this, they can do anything to try and get someone in the circle to smile except touch them. The person that they are trying to get to smile says to them, "Honey, I love you, but I just can't smile." When they respond, they cannot smile or laugh. If they do smile or laugh, they will be in the middle. If they do not smile or laugh, the person in the middle will have to try on someone else.

Objective: Begin work on duet pantomime scenes.
Product: You will be able to create a believable pantomime scene with a partner.
Bell Work: How did your performance go? What did you do well? How can you get better?
Class Activities
After the bell work was completed, students took down the following vocabulary:
crew - committee of technicians who work behind the scenes creating the scenery, costumes, props, and so on.
stage crew - the group of technicians responsible for building the scenery. during a production, this crew is in charge of any scene changes.
prop crew - the crew in charge of stage properties (props).
costume crew - the committee in charge of costuming the show.
Once these were discussed, the students were assigned another pantomime scene to perform in class. This time a duet scene. Partners were chosen by Mr. Eastland, as well as an activity that the students had to perform during their scene. Examples of activities included camping, baking, sports, etc. Each scene had to have a beginning, middle, and end. Also, the scene had to have a conflict of some kind that was resolved by the end of the scene.
Students were given ten minutes to prepare their scenes. During the scenes, the students may not talk or use props. I am looking for positivity, a willingness to try, creativity, clarity, emotion, and energy. If they give it all they got, they are sure to succeed!
