DCPA Education & Community Engagement presents Elephant & Piggie’s “We Are in a Play!” from October 18-December 22, 2024 in the Weeks Conservatory Theatre. Prepared specially for PreK through third grade audiences, this Theatre for Young Audiences production is based on Mo Willems’ beloved and award-winning children’s books. Dive into a world of make believe, pachydermal peril and swiney suspense with this pre-show activity.
ACTIVITIES TO DO:
Mo Willems has said the Elephant and Piggie books are for kids learning to read. Mo uses simple but expressive illustrations to convey a range of emotions and actions. Elephant Gerald and Piggie are enthusiastic subjects of their play until they discover that their story will end, and they creatively problem-solve so that they have a happy-ending to their tale.
One day, Piggie and Elephant went to ___________________________________________.
When they got there, Piggie found ______________________________________________.
Then Elephant found _________________________________________________________.
“Oh, dear!” Elephant cried. “Look at this _________________________________________!”
Piggie said, “Don’t worry, Gerald. Now you can ____________________________________.”
The two friends laughed. Elephant asked, “________________________________________?”
“________________________________________________________________!” said Piggie.
