Drama teacher's project journal

February: When the project began, the students had already been exploring exercises on building ensembles, warm-ups, pantomime, creativity and movement. The class teachers introduced them to the project MadeInMed+. 

March:Children read and discussed "Hercules Labours" in class, chose their favorite character and practiced exercises about the "why" behind every action and how to create compelling characters on stage.

April: The children chose to dramatize specific myths using body language, gesturing and other techniques. 

May: We formed the structure of the play choosing which myths we would dramatize in the end and started rehearsals on the final plan.

June: Rehearsing and finally the performance of our theatrical play "Hercules Labours"
