Children’s Storybook Characters Come to Life for Biography Day
Characters from the stories of authors J.K. Rowling,
Andrew Clements, E.B. White, Dr. Seuss and others visited
the Ceres M. Horn Theatre on Thursday, January 12, during
the third grade’s Biography Day. Dressed in character, the
students performed short, original skits that they wrote
after learning about the authors.
One of the highlights of the third-grade curriculum is
students portraying famous people in history. This new,
child-friendly format of Biography Day allows the students
to creatively and dramatically tell about their authors.
Lower School Head Noreen Lidston commented, “In the past,
our third graders researched a famous American, dressed in
an appropriate costume, and spoke as that famous American.
The current format takes that process one step further.
Rather than sharing their research through direct reporting,
the students took the information they learned about an
author and created something original and brand new...a skit
that required imagination and cooperation to produce. The
Class of 2021 has much to be proud of and celebrate!”
