   三个戏剧班所有的孩子，都给我们留下了优秀和认真的印象。几乎所有的学生都展现出了为取得良好成果而必备的理解力、热情和投入的精神。　　

　　周六  9月4日　　

　　在这个班上，老学员(Maggie, Ellen, Amy, Jerry)与新学员之间的差别还是值得我们注意的。老学员们感觉更舒适、自信、专注，他们让新来的孩子们有了榜样，新来的孩子们对于他们要学习的课程都感到很激动,但还得学习如何运用所学的知识。孩子们学习了基本的与戏剧有关的词汇, 舞台的不同部位。他们学到了戏剧最早起源于古希腊。孩子们将许多时间用于基础练习, 以培养孩子们把注意力集中在演对手戏的演员身上。William是班上年龄最大的孩子, 他以勇于尝试任何事情的勇气显示出了他的领导才能。所有的新学生，除了一位，由于害羞，都鼓起勇气站在全班面前, 做具有挑战性的声乐训练。 

             周日,9月5日　　

             上午班

             这是“A级”团队。除了一个孩子，别的孩子以前都和老师一起工作过, 他们中的大多数在三个不同的地方两出戏中表演过。 Annie是新来的孩子, 已经全身心投入，在今后的几个星期里，应该可以赶上其他孩子。本堂课介绍了威廉·莎士比亚和用诗歌来表达的特殊要求。我们复习了一些基本功练习。Chairman Hu和Mary大声用中文朗读了“伯里克里斯”中的高潮场景。

             We are very impressed with the quality and seriousness of the children in all three of our new drama classes. Almost all of the students exhibit an intelligence, enthusiasm, and commitment that will bear great fruit in the future. 

             Saturday, September 4

             The difference between the returning students (Maggie, Ellen, Amy, Jerry), and the new students, is noteworthy. The returning students are comfortable, confident, and focused. They're an example to the new students, who are excited by what they are learning, but have yet to learn how to apply it. The students were given the basic vocabulary of the theater and a description of the different areas of the stage. They learned of the origins of the theater in ancient Greece. Much time was devoted to a foundation exercise that trains the students to focus on the other actor. William, who is the oldest, showed leadership by his willingness to try anything. All new students, except one out of shyness, were courageous to stand up in front of the class by themselves and do a challenging vocal exercise.  

             Sunday, September 5

             Morning Class

             This is the "A" Team. All of the students, except one, have worked with the teacher before, most of them in two previous productions at three different venues. Annie, the new student, "jumped in with both feet," and will clearly catch up with the others in the weeks to come. The class received an introduction to William Shakespeare and the special demands of speaking in verse. Basic exercises were reviewed. Chairman Hu and Mary read aloud from the climactic scene of "Pericles" - in Chinese.

             下午班

             这个班由五个新学员组成, 这种小规模的班级暨形成了独特的挑战, 也展示了很高的希望。与星期六上午的课一样，孩子们学习了与戏剧有关的基本词汇, 如何在舞台上走步, 听了Thespis，这“第一个演员”的故事。所有的孩子在参与“重复”练习的时候都呈现了很高的热情, 这个练习是学习如何反应, 如何与合作伙伴在舞台上互动的基础。我们愉快地玩了“镜子”游戏, 一个学生集中精力同步模仿对方的动作。 英语基础好的孩子有天然的优势, 与此同时, 由于他们更熟悉英语, 有时会导致他们认为他们知道的比他们实际知道得更多。受益于班级的小规模，这将是一个高度集中的班级, 我们期待看到好的结果。

             注意: 请所有的孩子在下周带一个“活动” 到教室来，是一个有点难度的活动，我们将把这个活动纳入“重复”的练习中。　　

　　Afternoon Class

             Consisting of five new students, the size of this class presents unique challenges but also great promise. As with the Saturday morning class, the students received a basic vocabulary of the theater, an introduction to moving around the stage, and heard the story of Thespis, "the First Actor." All participated with enthusiasm in the repetition exercise, the foundation of learning how to react and interact with one's partner on stage. We also had fun playing the "mirror game," in which one student concentrates on the other and attempts to simultaneously mimic his/or her actions. Children with strong English skills have a natural advantage, but at the same time, their greater familiarity with English sometimes leads them to assume that they know more than they really do. This will be a particularly intensive class, by virtue of its size, and we expect great results. 

             Note: all of the students have been requested to return next week with an "activity," a project that is difficult to do, which will be incorporated into the repetition exercise.
