Shadow Puppets
3rd Grade
Third graders practiced a lot of creative thinking and collaboration while creating their shadow puppet shows! In small groups, students experimented with paper cutting to create puppets. Students had to think flexibly to develop characters that would show up via shadow. "You mean if I just color the face it won't show up?" Nope! What can you do instead? Through the use of paper, brads, chopsticks, and hole punchers, students shaped many unique characters. Finally, groups wrote scripts and performed their shows for the class. Unfortunately, the files are too large to post on here, so screen shots will have to do. Maybe you can use your imagination to create the stories?
