What a fun field trip we had today! In keeping with our "theater and puppetry" theme, the whole school went to Dreamland Theater in Ypsilanti, where we got to see a puppet show and have a question-and-answer session with the puppeteers. Everyone really enjoyed the show; during each scene change, there was an enthusiastic burst of chatter and laughter from the audience as the children processed what they'd just seen. There was also some in-seat dancing to the scene-change music!
Back in our classroom after the show, it seemed like everyone had a favorite puppet or two that they'd seen, and some ideas about what they'd liked best in the production. It's great to hear the children's opinions on what they've experienced.
Many thanks to everyone at Dreamland for sharing their art with us!
