DESCRIPTION

ADE is proud to partner with HMSA for "Eat Healthy"

ADE is educating 5th grade students all across Oahu to make informed food and exercises choices in their daily lives. Through educational scripts and song lyrics, children learn about nutrition and move together in choreographed dances. The 8-day teaching assignments culminate with school assemblies for K-4th grade students and packed-house evening performances for parents and families. Curriculum kits are also being packaged and delivered to neighbor island schools. These kits include a teacher’s manual, sample student workbook, and a sample DVD. Teachers may choose to use the DVD as a guide to putting on an “Eat Healthy” show in their school or simply show the DVD and have their students complete the workbooks.

William Shakespeare wrote,

"All the world is a stage and all the men and women merely players". 

ADE prepares Hawaii's youth for their performance on the stage of life.  We are not a typical Kindergarten to Grade 12 (K-12) school theatre program.  Rather than focusing on the art of theatre, we uniquely focus on building performing skills needed for life successes. 
We partner with teachers to enhance curriculum and meet DOE standards.  As our dramatic residencies pop students out of apathy and on to their feet, youngsters become better speakers and improve problem solving and organization skills. 
Our methods include:  creative dramatic games and directed exercises, tableaux, role reversals, song'n'dance staging, student-scripted scenes, and video feedback.  Each residency is designed to evoke responsible and safe behavior as students gain self-confidence, social skills, and respect for others while stretching to "do your best".

We have over 25 years of service, on 188 campuses, collaborating with over 4,000 teachers!
