Workshop Description

This is a holistic course that aims to bring out the creativity of the students, and express their thoughts and feelings in writing, speaking and performance, through storytelling. Storytelling is an age-old tradition. Throughout history, people have recounted their own personal stories, to reflect on lessons learn and to connect with each other. Through this interactive and fun course, students will write, edit, rehearse a personal story and finally perform their work in front of an audience. Theatre and drama techniques will be used to spark the students’ creativity and to elevate the delivery of their story.

 

Parents are invited to watch the performance of the students on the last day of class.

工作坊簡介

是一個整體的課程，旨在通過講故事的形式，發揮學生的創造力，加深他們對語言的理解，並在寫作、演講和表演中表達他們的思維和感受。講故事是一個古老的傳統。縱觀歷史，人們講述了自己的故事，從而加以反思自身的經驗教訓並加強人與人之間的互相聯繫。通過這個互動和有趣的課程，學生將編寫、編輯、排練一個自身的故事，並最後在觀眾面前表演他們的作品。這個課程將引用戲劇技巧來激發學生的創造力並提升他們做故事表演的感染力。

 

家長在課程的最後一天觀看學生的表演。
