DR.


My son is starting Kindergarten in a couple of weeks, and i am curious to know how i can make sure he developes good study habits..that will help him in the school years ahead.


Answer
I'm a teacher and I believe that kids should have a break right when they get home, just like adults need a break when they get home from work. Pick a time that is good, maybe right after dinner, and make it time for the two of you. Sit at the table with your child and do something that you need to get done...bills, reading, etc. Make sure your child checks hisher work and that you talk about it when it is completed. Then make sure they put it in the backpack right away..............so it doesn't get forgotten or the dog doesn't eat it!!!

How to act out a funny gym teacher character?




...


I'm going to nationals in speech and debate for humorous interp, which is where you basically act out an entire play yourself, including all the characters with no props. All you can use is body language and your voice, and actions of course. I have to use exactly whats in the script, no improv or extra words thrown in. My piece is about a little kid's first day of kindergarten and its super funny.. so basically my question is,

What are some things I can do to make my gym teacher character more distinct from other characters in my piece and at the same time make it funny?

Examples: One character (the nerd) is always holding the straps of an imaginary backpack
The "cool kid" is always slicking back his hair and adjusting an imaginary tie
The "crazy kid' speaks unevenly and twitches

I'm stuck on what to do with the gym teacher..



Answer
Easy.

Try a drill sargent.

A very bumbling, non-athletic type.

A very by-the-book with rules lawyer type, regulation and contract papers to fill out for insurance purposes and an accident prevention speech.

A germ-a-phobia type that really is afraid of kids and what they may carry.

An old timer, slow and even sleepy kind of over-the-hill and beyond retirement.

Or, the overbearing and self centered, 'Olympian'. Sports medicine graduate and career person.

Have at it.
