SUMMARY:Reader's Theater
DESCRIPTION:Common Ground: Reader’s Theater\nApril 23 from 12:30-2:30pm\nAt UU Congregation\nAll Ages — $5/participant\nNOTE: This event has been cancelled due to low response/not enough registrations. If you’re interested in these kinds of facilitated activities\, please be sure to pre-register so we can prepare supplies.  \nThe Common Ground Collective is a space for students and parents to come together\, connect\, and grow. In a world often divided by differences\, our mission is to create a joyful and supportive community where we celebrate what makes us unique and discover the common ground that unites us all. \nThis week we’re doing Reader’s Theater. Participants are given the opportunity to perform a script together. Reader’s Theater gives students the chance to practice reading aloud\, and practice reading with fluency and expression.\nOne of the most enjoyable ways to help students comprehend stories they read is to have them act it out\, using strategies for prompting oral development\, plus team effort and collaboration! Geared for ages 9+\, but younger readers may also participate. \nWe’re asking for $5 contribution toward the overhead costs of the facility. If you have multiple children or the cost is prohibitive\, pay what you can afford–and come anyway. We’d rather you come out and play\, than stay home. Please sign up so we know how many participants are coming! \nLocation: Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Columbia\, 2701 Heyward St\, Columbia\, SC 29205\nLook for Kim to greet you. Text and/or call if you get lost along the way 803-307-4880 \nRegistration is Closed for this event. Sign up for the next session:\nScience Share Fair on May 7 at 12:30\, located at UU Congregation
