In Creativity they were working on their Drama skills.
On the first week they were doing some drama games. The class learned communication skills. They used this vital skill when playing warm up drama games, writing scripts and even hot seating !
One of the other skills used was Team Player. Yet again this skill is vital in drama and a lot of other things as well. Being part of a team was very important as they all had to contribute ideas, this skill also links in with communication. They showed being a team player when writing a script and also following a script and organising who all the characters etc. were!
One of the other very important skills was Motivation. Motivation was shown when others weren’t that keen on showing and performing in front of the class. This meant that you would have to respect that they don’t want to but also make sure and motivate them and make sure they are determined.
The most important skill was CONFIDENCE !
Confidence was used when they were…
- Performing in front of a class
- Hot Seating
- Playing games out of comfort zone
- Doing silly things for fun games
This could be really hard for some people but yet they PULLED THROUGH !
Everyone in the skills academy really enjoyed their 6 weeks and hope to have something similar to it again !
