Break a Leg! Imagination & Drama in the Elementary Music Classroom
What happens when we give students permission to imagine, to play, and even to be a little silly? In this hands-on workshop, participants will explore how dramatic play transforms the music classroom into a space where there is room for creativity. Through storytelling, character work, movement, puppetry, and musical skits students are allowed to make artistic choices that deepen expression and ownership in performance.
