Welcome ladies and gentleman…boys and girls it’s time for a PUPPET SHOW!



Today the Tel Aviv class decided to put on their very own puppet show. Eliza and I were making a pet shop out of magnet tiles and we didn’t have any animals to put in it. So…we decided to draw some! After we drew some horses and puppies we decided to put them on sticks which made us think that they could be puppets! We re-arranged the tent to look like a theater and soon the excitement had caught on throughout the whole class. Some were making puppets, others were setting up chairs and the rest were practicing and deciding what music should be played during our star performance. It was great to watch they idea take off and spread with so much enthusiasm. Putting on a show is not an easy task- there are LOTS of decisions that had to be made and lots of voices to be heard. The Tel Aviv kids did a great job of using the problem skill of “negotiation” which was hard, but it was neat to see how much growth they have had using this skill throughout the year.  After some puppet creation and some practicing, the lights were out, the music was on and a beautiful show was preformed! Great Job Tel Aviv Friends!
