An Edinger House Toy Theater Production

of

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

In the winter of 2002, Ms. Edinger's 4th grade class studied Lewis Carroll's classic children's story, Alice's Adventure's in Wonderland.  After a deep immersion into the story, its author, and more, the class decided to create a toy theater production of the book. In teams, the children each wrote adaptations of the book's chapters; created characters, props, and scenery; practiced their plays, and performed them for each other.  These were then videotaped and placed on student-made web pages for others to see and enjoy. This is the second year a class has done this project and this year's class was able to use last year's projects as models. We had a lot of fun (and some wet moments) and hope you enjoy our plays as much as we enjoyed creating them!
