Eighth Grade Enrichment Classes

Drama Classes
Drama 8 pulls together all the concepts of dramatic structure that are introduced in earlier courses. Performance skills will continue to be developed through work on more sophisticated material. Playwriting will help students understand character, conflict, dialogue, setting and structure as they create their own plays. Students will also be introduced to a performance-based understanding of Shakespeare, with an emphasis placed on connecting words to action, and to demystifying the text.
