Acting

Caitlyn now also attends the weekly acting classes/workshops (where Keegan has been going for a while.) The lady who leads the group does such an awesome job. She really wants the kids to develop their confidence, creativity, and speaking skills, more than acting. It is a wonderful opportunity for the girls. I love seeing them try things out of their comfort zones. Although this class is definitely more in Keegan's comfort zone than Caitlyn's :-). Kelsey is too young for the group, but she and I sit in the audience and learn through osmosis :).

They also work on breath control, body language, enunciation, facial expressions, speak monologues, and critique each other. Keegan has performed one monologue and has another almost ready to go, and Caitlyn said her first one last week. Next week is their class final class of the year.

These pictures are from a group improv. The kids get divided into groups of 4 or 5 and have 5-10 minutes to develop a skit which includes certain things. These had to involve a college classroom and be a comedy. I forget what skill they were to supposed to focus on....hmmmmm, maybe body language? They do that a lot, so I'll just guess it, even though I don't think it's right ;).
