CHARLIE THE ELF – A SHADOW PUPPET ADVENTURE!

Leave a comment

Oh I’m soooo behind with my socials!

But I just HAVE to share this super image of the shadow puppets the absolute STARS at Aye Aye Club made on Monday night.

These were all from the story of Charlie the Elf who left Ireland behind and travelled across the ocean on the Good Ship Big Leaf – safely cooried up in a cabbage! (and didn’t make it to the gold rush… but got to South America by mistake and became rich mining Uranium!)

Fantastic shadow puppets and we had fun making them move using my wee shadow theatre set-up! (a light, a frame, some clips and a photographic screen that actually went back into its back afterwards)

All part of my two visits from the #sisfstoryripple25

And be sure to visit Aye Aye Club’s page and vote for your favourite joke! This was their good deed for the ripple and they smashed it once again! 😀

Tomorrow the pupils at my Promise Group get to see all their hard work spliced together into a film!

I’ve been hard at it editing sound, clips of shadow puppets and an introduction where the pupils used hand puppets. The whole school will get to see it too!

I was wondering what to do with their shadow puppets and asked if the school could find a space for them to go on display somewhere. I hope they like it! 🙂

Shadow Puppets with my Promise Group

Leave a comment

My Wednesday Promise Group have really blown me away with their designs for our shadow puppets!

Each pupil shone in a different way – creativity, attention to detail, skillful drawing, enthusiasm, great description of their ideas and confidence to go ahead and make some amazing characters !!

And the dragon… well have you ever seen such a great creation? (Assembled by me this weekend, but following precise instructions)

Can’t wait to work with them (the puppets and the pupils 😂) on Wednesday!!
