We did some activities in the class to get prepared and ready to act and to be more creative and to learn how to work in a group
so we played:
Lemonade : a game that you should transfer to a machine and the other team should guess which machine you are
Transforming : in this game you can use any thing even a hanger and be creative in transforming it to any thing violin, toothbrush...etc
One word story : in this game we sat in a circle and every one should say one word and the next one say another word that should be related the word that said before till the end of the story
Machine : one of the students stand and start doing some movements and everybody should be connected to each others in some way to make one machine

26th of sept
in the end of the week here's my reflection about this week:
Targets : in this game people start to spy on other people without letting them know that
this game was so exciting to me because you keep spying on somebody without letting them know that
shelter, person,storm : two people should make a shelter and the people should hide in those houses and they have to change their places when the leader say person and the same thing for the shelters
needed a really fast movings
Yes,no,please,banana : in this game a group of two people should make a play using only those 4 words
it was a lot about the behave you do or the emotion you take more than the scripts
what are you doing : every one standed up and the one next to him ask about what is he doing and then he answers with any thing so that guy next to him should do what the other guy just said
the next week
Emotion party: there was someone have to stay in the room and 4 outside of the room and every one when he enters the room should show an emotion and the others around him should be affected by the same emotion he had and for me that helps to adapt to the environment around you
Stop go jump: the point of this game was to stop being shy to act in front of people in silly ways
Slow motion emotion: three of us everyone had to choose a card and try doing the emotion he found in that card and the others had to figure out which emotion it was and that game is on he point of how to express your feelings so you can export them to the audience
real life scene: we had to think about a real life scene and acting that scene
tv channels: four of us one is the remote control and three are different channels and the people should guess what kind of channels you were
photo scene every group took a photo looked at it and had to do a scene based on the environment of the picture with some changes in the story of every picture
twin interview: every couple of people was interviewed by someone and they both had to reply with the same words
I, You, We: in this game we stood in two rows, and you have to make a situation using these words to start the sentence, it was a little bit hard to me because we only had to answer using these words to start the sentence but it help you to be more creative to make the things up while you are on the stage and have to make creative conversation
Name, adjective, job: in a circle 4 saying the name, adjective, job and the fourth one have to act the adjective and the job and the name that presents the gender, it was easy one for me and the fourth one had a lot of fun for me as he had to mix all of these things together in one person in a creative way.
11/25
for today we started the usual start with some warming ups "the musical chairs" "here we go on a big fat pony", then we started acting some scenes or transforming them first to be suitable to the boarder stories, we had to get two different people to act each of the scenes and they were different way like two of them we used the different languages that the international student had and it was so cool to hear all of those different languages.
second week of December:
The last week we continued working on our issue that we chose, the immigrations and stories across the borders. In that time we had enough stories to make a show with so we started making scenes out of these stories, and also we had the international students’ monologues which will make it more heart touching. Also we started organizing the scenes and putting an order for them so we don’t find the same person in two scenes consecutively. The rehearsal started, we started rehearsalling the scripts we wrote and got some comments from the director. The other day we reharseled again and got more comments, the the director decided on helping us rewriting the scripts.
