Set Design
/Today we started designing the set for our We Don’t Eat Our Classmates play. First we discussed the term setting and talked about the different settings in the story. We decided to begin by designing the set for the part of the story that takes place in Penelope’s bedroom. We brainstormed a list of props, materials, and art we would need for this scene. Then we got to work. Different teams of artists worked on developing the following props: ABC poster, wall map, and magneta/purple bedroom walls.
In other news, we are loving our morning dance party! We love to dance with scarves and practice our hand-eye coordination as we throw and catch the scarves. This dance party serves as a brain break that gets our blood pumping and our brains active in preparation for writer’s workshop. In our outside classroom today we noticed a yellow jacket eating the remains of what appeared to be a honey bee. Since it’s Monday we got to choose new class jobs. As usual, we ended the day with project exploration. Below you can find some photos taken by students of their structures.
