Whether working together to figure out how to design props with limited materials or use uncommon materials to build a model boat that will move through water, Camp Tuku’s drama and innovations classes help kids tap into their innate curiosity, strengthen creativity, and learn the value of collaboration.
You might not think that innovations, which is a STEM-based class, has much in common with drama class. So, not true! The skills the kids are learning in innovations carry over to drama, and vice-versa.
- The creativity of crafting a performance supports creative problem solving in the innovations class.
- Working as a team to figure out how to build an object carries over to the tasks required when building props for a performance.
