Drama
Instructor: Mrs. Kay
The mission of the Performing Arts Exploratory Classes is to develop student creativity and performance abilities in order to effectively communicate to others through music and/or drama and to help students become knowledgeable consumers of the arts. Classes are designed to meet the National Fine Arts Standards. Grades will be based mostly on performance (teacher assessed and student self-assessment) but will also include written assignments and assessments.Drama: Students will learn how to better communicate with their voice (breath support, tone, diction, style, and interpretation), facial expression, body language, and movement. Students will learn theatre terminology and stage directions. Students will learn and practice these skills by working with theatre games, pantomime, diction, vocal projection, character development, oral interpretation and monologues.

online metronome
"A metronome is a practice tool that produces a steady pulse (or beat) to help musicians play rhythms accurately. The pulses are measured in beats-per-minute (BPM). Most metronomes are capable of playing beats from 35 to 250 BPM. Common uses of the metronome are helping you to maintain an established tempo while practicing, and learning difficult passages."
