Fairy Tale Puppet Show!


Our class did a puppet show last Friday.  The kiddos were so excited that they could hardly breathe! They sang songs for each of the stories and were loud, expressive, and animated.  It was a lot of fun to see all the different little personalities come forward!  The students each scripted their own dialog that their character would say. So each time we'd practice it was a little different.  The day of the performance was exciting because I wasn't sure just what the story would be like!
The first story was The Three Little Pigs.  Those pigs frightened the big bad wolf so hard that he flew right off stage and was never seen again!  We loved it!
At the end of Jack and the Beanstalk, the giant fell right over the curtain on the floor!  It was great!
When the Great Big Billy Goat Gruff said to the troll, "Bring it on, big boy!" we all broke out giggling.
 Our story of The Little Gingerbread Boy was especially tricky because we had added a couple characters and they were squished to fit behind the curtain, but they did it!  And it was wonderful!
 Our last story was Little Red Riding Hood. The audience loved it when the wolf actually did put on Grandma's nightgown!
