Testimonial

Having the opportunity to work with AFLCT has been truly beneficial; they've provided unique experiences that have positively impacted our students. Their professional artists are strong role-models who encouraged students to take risks, find their voices, and be confident young people. They assisted in the process of inspiring our students to discover their individual identities and be able to self-assuredly express and share their ideas and opinions.

Description

ADVENTURES IN RHYME is an interactive poetry show that teaches PRE-K, Kindergarteners, and First Graders about rhythm, rhyme, and poetry. During this action-packed presentation, each poem requires some type of participation or activity. Students act out poems with Darren, figure out poetry riddles, dance to the rhythm of his rhymes, become characters in his poems, and use their imaginations in unique ways. It’s a wonderful way to introduce poetry to young people.

Objectives

1. Students will learn and understand what poetry means.

2. Students will feel rhythm by clapping, tapping, swaying, humming, and reciting poems with Darren.

3. Students will find out how to use their imaginations in unique ways.

4. Students will ask and answer questions, participate in interactive poetry, and learn how to put ideas in motion.
