Do-It-Yourself
("DIY") Performance and Curriculum Kit
We distribute our Mr. History Musicals to teachers across the country so that their students may perform the musicals themselves. By putting on their own show, kids experience how much fun history can be. Our Study Guides offer educators innovative ways to turn this fun into education. Curricula included with a DIY Kit help improve standardized test results in literacy, math, science, the humanities, and language arts. Interaction is constant, cooperation is key, and learning is continuous. Together, teachers and students participate in a dynamic and entertaining educational experience.
A DIY Kit contains:
PERFORMANCE:
•Script
•Piano/vocal score
•Rehearsal/Sing-along/Performance CD
•Suggestions on scenery, lights, costume
|
CURRICULUM:
•Lesson plans derived from the show
•Discussion of characters, events, history
•Games and puzzles
•Suggested reading, films, other media |
Mini-DIY Kit
For teachers who do not have time to mount an entire production, Quill can provide a 15-20 minute dramatization of a Mr. History Musical on audio CD, perfect for a one- or several-day experience. Students may learn the songs, act out the shortened scenes, and still use the Study Guides for enhanced learning.
For a price list and to order your DIY Kit, email Quill at quillcompany@gmail.com.
