Build - an- Improv



Every term brings something new for our students to learn and enjoy.

This term the Upper Primary group have started doing Structured Improvs. During these scenes the students build the Improv as led by their own ad-libbing. Not only will this improve our creative thinking but also encourage strong ad-libbing skills.

So far, the students have enjoyed the new activity as it allows them to add key-lines and show that they do not only possess the skill to present their characters, they can direct and create as well.







The way the improvs have been structured for this group this term allow the students to be part of the development of the plot structure. The curriculum and the teacher set the outline and progression while students fill in the rest.

This exercise is especially valuable as many of these students are being prepared to progress to the Youth Theatre group.
