Theater Programs
Ogden School District Theater
In elementary theater we focus on skills and knowledge of creative drama. Young children build skills by participating in experiences in which they:
- Imitate and re-create the world around them
- Develop body awareness and sensory and emotional perception
- Explore the environment and play with sound.
As they get older, children engage in warm-ups and theater games to help them move from dramatizations with simple plots to more complex plots, characters, and ideas. Pantomime (non-verbal movement) develops from early stages of spontaneity and imitation to structured movement that communicates emotions and ideas.
Highland Junior High School Drama
Highland Junior High School intermediate drama students created a short video of performances we did at the beginning of January. The performances are adaptations of two of the books from Mo Willlems children's series, Elephant and Piggie.
T.O. Smith Theatre class 4th grade song about the Golden Spike!
Mrs. Burton’s 4th grade theatre students created their very own song about the Golden Spike and the Transcontinental Railroad. In theatre class, students learned about Utah’s history by reading plays and writing their own lyrics and creating the music for a one-of-a-kind song. Special thanks to Kelin Gibbons and the Utah Festival Opera and Musical Theatre songwriters program.
