IfKids Drama Classroom-Xidian Branch
IfKids studying group helped children to grow up happily and confidently. Ifkids Drama Classroom has 4 branches. We went to Xidian branch in New Taipei City today. This classroom was the classroom of Cloud Gate Dance. It located at B1. We went down the stair and saw the reception where students register, pay the fee and get information. There are three classrooms and there were special windows for parents to observe the kids in the class on the other hand, the students were not able to see their parents. Why they set up the special windows? It is because parents might want to know how their children do in the class. However, if the children knew the parents were watching, they would not behave as usual. They would try to act in the way parents liked to please them, in this way, the children might not able to perform well or think independently. This was created for parents to observe the children without disturbing the class. There were three big mirrors in each classroom. There was also an open area beside the stair for children to take a rest or read. IfKids Drama Classroom cares about the children so they provide children a space to develop freely.
Communication Activities
We had a little time left on that day after the interview. Mr. Chao was very kind to invite us to watch the performance of Melbourne Cultural Teachers Seed Study group. We saw three different plays. The first play was a pantomime. Although we did not know the story, but they still made us laugh. The second one was a story about three sisters. The eldest sister and the second eldest sister often bullied the youngest sister. One day, two sisters were hurt when they were chopping the woods. They youngest sister did not get hurt instead she got a golden goose. If the people who were greedy touched the goose it, their hands would stick on it. We laughed loudly and enjoyed the show al lot. Unfortunately, we were not able to watch the whole show because of time.
