All students in the school will be <br />involved in creating the play in some way during their art classes—set <br />development, costume design, technical set-up—but the fourth and fifth <br />graders will actually perform and act as the technical crew for the play. <br />Being a major part of the annual school play is something that 4th and 5th <br />graders very much look forward to in their elementary school career. <br />Students will have a chance to develop their presentation skills, work <br />together as a team, learn through written text how to interpret the mood of <br />a piece of writing and its intent, and to build their self-confidence. CES has <br />its own auditorium and there will be multiple shows performed in early 2025 <br />so that the entire school, family members, and community members will all <br />have a chance to view it. These are always sold-out performances. Funds <br />will be used for costuming, sets, and props. <br />Project Start Date <br />(no earlier than July <br />1, 2024) <br />September 1, 2024 <br />Project End Date (no <br />later than June 30, <br />2025) <br />March 1, 2025 <br />Project Goals Produce a high-quality play of Peter Pan that involves all elementary <br />school students from Carrboro Elementary; <br />Expose students to the many different art experiences as they create the <br />props, backgrounds, costumes, etc. for the play; <br />Increase student performance confidence, especially 4th and 5th graders, <br />who will have the major roles in the play and act as technical staff; <br />Perform Peter Pan for the CES students, staff, families, and community <br />members in at least five performances. <br />Cirruculum and <br />Enrichment <br />Visual and Performing Arts, Theater, Social and Emotional Learning, <br />Literacy decoding. <br />Docusign Envelope ID: D35775E7-17E4-4106-BBF0-DA34B930C40E
