Sparx Studio has modified its usual educational acting program to fit the online world! Children learn valuable social-emotional skills playing fun acting games that involve communication, creativity, critical thinking, and improv skills.
Updated material has been added to address the current COVID-19 situation in a sensitive and helpful manner. This is a great opportunity for children to interact socially while maintaining social distancing.
Concepts children will learn:
- how to make isolation easier for everyone at home (for you and others)
- courage tips to help ease anxiety
- bullying vs teasing (and what to do in both situations)
- stranger danger scenarios
- emotional intelligence activities
Two grade groups:
- Little Sparkies: JK–Grade 2*
- Big Sparx: Grade 3–Grade 5
*Grade 2 students can choose either group.
