Acting (8-12)

$95.00

Acting / 8-12 / Period 7 / KK / T1-T2-T3

Acting 8-12 will continue to help students grow in their acting techniques and skills. In the first trimester, we will focus on exercises and performing shorter skits inside our class to be shared via recordings to our families and the Academy. If your student does not wish to perform in the spring play, but would love a safe place to grow in their acting skills, 1st Trimester is the perfect fit. For those who love acting and want to perform in the play, 1st Trimester is a great place to improve skills and build relationships with your fellow actors.

1st Trimester will look like this in class: we will begin each class by explaining one or two games/techniques (depending on time). These techniques will focus on the many aspects of both verbal and non-verbal acting. We will work as a large group first, then continue the game(s) in smaller circles. For the second part of class, we will work on small group skits. We “perform” the skits in class weeks 8-10, and I will video record them for the private viewing of MCA families.

2nd Trimester: Continue with the in class exercises, and begin to work on the spring play (to be announced in July – please sign up now if interested, and the teacher will be in contact with those students/families with script possibilities to be sure the majority are on board).

3rd Trimester: Complete the play with several performances in April, and finish up the trimester with more fun exercises in class.

No formal grade – HS credit will be given for this elective class as long as the student completes the in class work, is consistent in attendance, and memorizes lines on time. Students are required to memorize their lines for the skits & the play by due dates listed in the syllabus.

Class size: 25
Class time: 3:30-4:20 p.m.
Class level: 8-12
Taught by: Kristina Kain
Materials fee: none
Materials needed: pencil, highlighter, and folder.
Class code: KK 7
