Cincinnati's Playhouse in the Park visits BIS

Performing artists from Cincinnati’s Playhouse in the Park joined each class in person for 40 minute workshops during the 5 day week. Each grade level had a different theme/unit of focus for the week. Students in third and fourth grade centered their workshops on novels that were previously read in class. In third grade students brought to life The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame and in fourth grade the students worked on Because of Winn Dixie by Kate DiCamillo. Instead of working on performances from novels, the fifth graders worked on studying great speeches and also writing their own.
