Last week we had a number of guest speakers come to kindergarten to share how they use their imaginations everyday. Mr. Jon Denhartigh, the high school art teacher, shared how he uses his imagination both as an artist and a teacher. He thinks of a creative idea and then has to imagine what it will look like. The next step is figuring out how to turn it into a piece of art.
Our next visitor was Mr. Rob Russell, the middle school and high school band teacher. We had a great time exploring our imaginations with him as he engaged us in many theater activities. He was quite impressed with the ideas the kindergarteners shared when asked to take a normal object and use it in a novel way.
Mr. Jeff Redman, the middle school theater teacher, also came in last week to talk about using his imagination in his work and through his love of theater. After several activities he put on a couple shadow puppet shows for us and engaged the students in coming up with the puppet show plot.
