KidsAct! #2- Let The Devising Begin!

The student’s of KidsAct! Session #2 had a spectacular first day!

Today, we each got to know each other better by playing many games as well as exercising our creativity. Whether it be icebreaker games like “As The Wind Blows” or “Two Steps Forward,” or practicing our improvisational skills with the game “Machine,” these children are clearly wonderfully creative and funny!

Also, our campers learned -not one- but TWO songs; “You’re Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile” from the musical Annie and “When I Grow Up” from the musical Matilda. As music director, I was thoroughly impressed with everyone’s beautiful voices!

Later in the day, we began devising our original musical by asking students to share what they want to do, learn and be when they get older, inspired by the song “When I Grow Up” from Matilda that they learned in music class earlier in today.

Here are the notes from our group devising discussion!

We are so excited to continue with this fantastic group of campers. A reminder that tomorrow, July 9th is POOL DAY. Thank you so much!
