Hello, 5B families!
We’ve had a lot of drama in our class lately! Students have been experimenting with handmade dioramas, puppets, props, costumes and a green screen as they retell and reenact many great Bible stories. They have been strengthening their creativity, confidence, and skills on the stage.
We have been discussing the powerful messages of each Bible story and thinking critically about how we can apply these Biblical lessons to our lives today.
Using iMovie, we superimpose some interesting backgrounds onto our green screen to further enhance the stories and inspire the imagination. Do you recognize the Biblical scenes below?
Students who would like to participate in our photographed and videoed Bible story reenactments yet not appear recognizable on the blog are invited to bring a beard/wig to class in term three. We are in need of students to play characters like Moses, Noah, Abraham, John the Baptist, etc. Participation is optional 🙂
As for costumes, I have a collection of “Biblical times” costumes students can use in class (basically just a bunch of clean, earth-toned bed sheets, pillowcases and scarves): however, feel free to have fun putting together your own era-appropriate costume to keep at school for the theatrical productions we will do in April and May. For ideas, you may want to watch the series called “The Chosen”—imagine you were going to be an actor in that series.
