Description
Custom designed for each grade level, this residency uses storytelling to teach oral expression and listening skills. Dynamic and interactive creative drama activities will excite and involve the entire class. Students are guided to use their creativity as they develop stronger connections between spoken word and writing, strengthen communication skills, build confidence, and enhance collaboration in the classroom.

Testimonials
“Noa's residency was a huge success! It was obvious that the students walked away with many new skills... this residency allowed the students to express themselves and use their imagination in so many ways! They actively looked forward to their sessions together and could not wait to see Ms. Noa! Thank you for all your hard work!”
Mary Dezinno, Howard County Arts Council, Head Start programs, MD
“Each child was able to develop confidence and self-expression in the atmosphere of acceptance that you created.”
Harriet Gadisman, Teacher, Willit Elementary, Davis, CA
"It was inspiring to watch Noa’s mastery of group dynamics—her ability to inspire the shiest child and at the same time create positive boundaries for the high energy boys. Not only did the students benefit from their participation in these activities, but we came away with a wealth of new ideas for our classrooms!”
Cindy Finley and Louise Zabriskie, Teachers, Patwin Elementary, Davis, CA
