Lesson 1: Chapter 1: In this lesson, we focus on the beginning of this retelling of the Epic of Gilgamesh, meeting Gods and Goddesses, the citizens of Uruk, and their King who longs for a friend.
Meditation: We begin every session with a check in and meditation. The brief meditation allows us to bring focus to the work we will do together and creates a calmness that makes learning easier.
Physical Warm-up: Routine is critical to successful lessons, and since our lessons are centered around acting, we start by engaging our body from head to toe.
Vocal Warm-up: Furthering our routine as actors, we engage the voice with the goal of speaking clearly and distinctly. This is so important as we prepare for our oral reading fluency work.
