This 22 page Parts of a Theatre Activity brings intro to theatre vocab to life! Students build a mini-theatre to learn where each part of the theatre is & will differentiate between the different types of stages: proscenium, thrust & arena. Using project based learning, (PBL) they will get crafty & make new friends. This is one of my favorite activities to do at the beginning of the year to build friendships and show kids how fun theatre class can be. Teachers will appreciate this low prep activity that can keep kids working for several days!
