Christian LIGHT is a homeschool cooperative. This means it is completely volunteer-driven, and parent-supported. Each family must supply a parent who will actively participate each week. Families are also responsible for their own children's costumes and for contributing props for performances. Parents are responsible to supervise homework, and help students learn lines at home.
Drama is more than theater. Theater is part of drama. The focus of theater is to perform. The focus of drama is to engage an audience, explore presence and emotion, discover history and culture from another person's perspective, develop communication skills, and discover hidden abilities by experimenting in art, music, and technology.
Students will further explore formal oral communication, including monologues, public speaking, recitation, readers theater, the use of props and visual aides, body positioning, voice control. Understanding audiences, and researching for presentations will be discussed in class.
Students will discover and experience improv, music and movement, and interactive dialogue.
All students will develop and apply skills to communicate feelings and abstract concepts through voice control, body language and overall theatrical performances.
Students will learn and apply theater etiquette.
At the end of the fall semester, students will demonstrate their newly acquired and practiced drama skills with friends and family at our annual variety show.
In the spring semester, students will engage in scenery and prop making, and play performing as they prepare to perform in an adaptation of "Robin and the Sherwood Hoodies."
