On February 28th , the Saso Elementary

00:03.269 --> 00:05.750
School performing arts choir and dance

00:05.760 --> 00:07.593
clubs , held two performances of

00:07.593 --> 00:09.750
shoemaker , a dragon master and the

00:09.760 --> 00:12.390
elves , a live student production . We

00:12.399 --> 00:14.621
wanted to have a project based learning

00:14.621 --> 00:16.843
opportunity for students to kind of get

00:16.843 --> 00:19.010
an idea of what performing arts is all

00:19.010 --> 00:21.232
about . So we took kindergarten 1st and

00:21.232 --> 00:24.229
2nd grade students . They started off

00:24.239 --> 00:26.520
with designing their own set , writing

00:26.530 --> 00:28.752
their own scripts , designing their own

00:28.752 --> 00:31.200
costumes and then working hard to put

00:31.209 --> 00:33.320
it all together as a teen . The other

00:33.320 --> 00:35.209
things that I really think that a

00:35.209 --> 00:37.320
program like this helps with is their

00:37.320 --> 00:39.729
confidence , be able to speak clearly ,

00:39.740 --> 00:42.029
to be able to formulate bots memorize

00:42.040 --> 00:44.250
lines . I'm just really proud of the

00:44.259 --> 00:46.389
kids . I I think it's amazing and

00:46.400 --> 00:48.810
phenomenal when you really realize the

00:48.819 --> 00:51.130
amount of work that they put in and

00:51.139 --> 00:53.139
when you look at the ages of them ,

00:53.139 --> 00:55.720
that's even more incredible reporting

00:55.729 --> 00:57.659
from Saso . This is Petty Officer

00:57.669 --> 00:58.180
