TAKING ACTION THAT MATTERS

When we began our design inquiry, "Tell Me a Story," we asked for ideas about puppetry from other bloggers. ERutherford suggested we survey our Preps to discover their favourite stories. And that's just what we did...thanks to ERutherford!

This action was about entertaining others and having fun at the same time! (Siobhon)
It was fun creating our own scripts from the stories selected. (Nic)
I was amazed at the Preps incredible feedback Their language was astounding and mature. (Mark)
The Preps were really engaged, so we think our puppets and plays were entertaining! (Gemma)
I learnt new skills such as sewing! (Cameron)
Everybody followed the design process to make their puppets-this process was really helpful. (Siobhon and Corinne)
Because we have collected lots of recycled materials, we have made really creative puppets! (Georgia)
The puppets reflected our individual styles of working. (Mairead)

  2. Hello Middle MY
    I think it was easy for the Preps to give such positive feedback because they were so engaged and entertained by your shows. They loved the settings and your puppets. I thought the scripts were very funny and well written.
    What a great action you have taken - exploring the design process to make your puppets and creating entertaining shows that were perfect for the Preps to enjoy.
    Great work once again!
