Investor
Thank you to the following investor for funding this grant.
A Champion For Learning - $575.00
Goal
The goal is to have our students exposed and enjoy a theatrical production of a children's classic book " the Velveteen Rabbit".
Florida Repertory Theatre from Ft Myers has performed at our school for the past 2 years a children's book as a theatrical production. Our students rarely get to the movies much less see a live performance.
The value and the exposure to how a book can come to life serves to be inspirational, especially when we do reader's theater in the classroom setting.
Category
School-Wide, Grade-Level, Or Class Events/Programs - Parent Nights, Honor Roll Celebrations, EOY Events, etc.
What will be done with my students
Students from kinder to 2nd grade will enjoy a one hour performance of The Velveteen Rabbit performed at MDE.
In the past 2 years you have generously donated to 2 performances that the kids have thoroughly enjoye. Florida Repertory Theatre Co. has complimented the school both time as being one of their best audiences.
Benefits to my students
Students will experience how a book can come to life and how this can benefit/translate to the classroom when doing readers theater, thus providing an additional outlet to increase/explore different ways of comprehending children's books.
Budget Narrative
This cost is based on approximately 300 plus ( less that 400) students enjoying the performance.
