TEACHING ARTIST
"My online Littles and in-class Littles adored her.
​They want her back and still talk about her lessons. IMPACTFUL!"

"Miss Christina was powerful…"I am still using her “good morning everyone” voices to keep her with us, and we are doing her stretches to improve our physical stamina."

“Where the Sidewalk Ends” the Fun Begins! 
​Discovering Poetry Through Drama
​Grades:   3-5

​Rhyme, rhythm, onomatopoeia, metaphor, and simile – these are devices we’ll explore through the dramatization of poetry.
​Using the poems of Shel Silverstein, students will enhance their knowledge of poetic elements, and grow their understanding of the tools poets use to communicate and convey mood. Students will bring the poems to life through acting and characterization, collaboration, rehearsal, and final performance. Trained in the Kennedy Center Arts Integration Method, actor, writer, and teaching artist Christina Kiepper leads students to a deeper understanding of poetry and meaning through dramatic performance.
