Block 3 Accelerated Theatre
- Please read this week's visual interactive lesson calendar- click here.
- It goes over all of your assignments for the week with the links & gives you a quick peek at next week.
- You will complete a theatre choice board challenge. See the lesson calendar for more details/due date.
- You have an optional FORT REPORT challenge (for those of you who have asked me for more challenges and have said you are bored).
- This is worth an extra 100 pts and is super fun! If you are missing any work or would like bonus points this is a great fun way to do so! See the lesson calendar for more details/due date.
- NEXT MONDAY, there is a one time HAMLET ZOOM from 12:30-1:15pm in which I will go over all things Hamlet with you.
- This does not conflict with any other Zooms.
- We will be reviewing the Hamlet links that are located on your visual calendar.
- This looks like a ton. It is not. It would take us one regular 50-65 min class to look at all of this together AND discuss it in depth.
- All of the video links total about 20 minutes and the character docs can be looked over quickly.
- The docs contain:
- background info on the characters in Hamlet
- a dictionary/glossary info resource if you need/want to look up any vocabulary- you'll want to use this resource in high school)
- The "To be or not to be" document
- clearly and slowly read this over as it is your project which is due NEXT Friday, May 8th.
- Regular Thursday Zoom Class is still from 1:45 to 2:30pm is mandatory. This includes the extra 15 minutes the class voted on to finish our improv/acting exercises. If you have a 2:30pm zoom, you can leave at 2:25pm.
- Please read your emails or LMS tomorrow and reply to me by 6pm. Thanks!
Blocks 1-3,
It feels like 84 years since we were in the middle school building altogether but at least we have ZOOM!
For any classes that read this far, send me an email by Tuesday at Noon with your favorite actor and favorite movie in green font and you will receive 15 points extra credit.

BLOCKS 1-3 THEATRE
This week Physical Dance Warm-Up Challenge is brought to you by the awesome Brian Curl of the Daily 8 Count.
Over the course of this week, you will watch 5 daily short videos (they are less than 2 minutes each). The last three additional videos are the whole dance combo from the front, then from the back, and the song only so you can practice the dance combo by yourself.
Your job is to practice each day and then by Friday afternoon (or earlier if you would like) to video yourself doing the dance combo with the music playing in the background and submit it to my flipgrid Ms. Kendrick Flipgrid Topic or upload it to google and share it with kphillips@davisacademy.org
Here are the written signs of each dance step/combo to help you along after or with each video when you practice.
Please note all the links you need are embedded above in the text. Thanks!
