Giant spiders scare away Explorers!


Students in our Sandton class (5-8yrs) getting into character where half the class were dressed as explorers and the other half giant spiders for this weeks improvisation "Spider Island ".This part of the lesson teaches the children about basic performance skills and helps to improve their self confidence and encourages social interaction. And of course they are having fun in the process!
