WHAT HAPPENS TO THIS CHILD?
SCENARIO
One idea for decorating the front of the stage may be to draw a large mural which see the various products and professionals who are required to produce a garment such as a coat. First draw a sheep, several balls of wool, then a loom, then a few rolls of cloth and finally a tailor making up the garment.
CHARACTERS
CHILD. Normally clothed child.
OWL. Child dressed as an owl. Mask of cardboard or foam.
FISH. Children dressed fish. In the same way as above.
DOCTOR. - Boy or girl disguised as a medical doctor.
COW. Disguised as a cow girl. Surely you can make a cow mask and so have no problem for the costume.
PIG. Children dressed pig. In Volume I included a pig mask that, you can help.
BEE. Girl dressed as a bee. With the body of foam and cardboard wings looks good
HEN. Girl disguised as chicken. I say the same thing for the pig.
MONKEY. Children dressed as monkeys. If you buy a monkey mask in a costume shop , the rest we can use black tights, black shirt and long tail.
TAILOR. Child dressed as a tailor. I'd put a long black trousers and a seamstress meter hanging from the shoulder.
WEAVER. Child dressed as a weaver. Something like long trousers rolled up shirt sleeves and suspenders thirties style”
MOM. Mama's little girl disguise. Here you don’t need any special clothing.
TEACHING OBJECTIVES
Apart from that this issue is good to study the animal food from the central issue is to explain the process followed to produce a garment.
EMOTIONAL EDUCATION
Emotionally I intend to educate on the value of solidarity and empathy. The book features a child crying and all the characters are interested in him, that's what I want to convey. Concern for the suffering of others is always a positive value. How nice it would be the world if we could achieve these objectives.
