Den Meeting - October 26th, 2010 SHOWMAN ACTIVITY BADGE

IN PROGRESS... 
SHOWMAN ACTIVITY BADGE
Accomplished #13, #14 and #20.
Started working on #2, #3, & #7.

NEXT DEN MTG. - WE WILL CONTINUE WORKING ON THE SHOWMAN ACTIVITY BADGE, particularly #2, #3, #7 and others in the Puppetry Category.

Look forward to some Puppet Shows at our next Pack Mtg, which will be Nov. 16th!


Yesterday was the first day CR and I worked with the Webelos!  And yesterday was J's first day of Webelos!  Welcome J!

We worked on the SHOWMAN Activity Badge, p. 430 of the Webelos book.

We did 2 activities from the Music category, #13 and #14, even though we only had to do 1 activity from this section.

#13 is Draw a staff.  Draw on it a clef, a sharp, a flat, natural, note and rest.  Tell what each is used for.
We did this on a white board.

#14 is Show the difference between 2/4, 3/4, 4/4 time by beating time or playing an instrument.
We did this through clapping.

We did 1 activity from the Drama category which was #20.

#20 is Make a list of stage directions.  Tell what they mean.

We did this on the white board and we learned that going up means towards the back and down means towards the audience.  Stage left and right are from the actor's perspective and center is center!

Then we started with the Puppetry category and worked on #1, #3, and #7.

#1 is Write a puppet play about one of your Webelos den activities or a subject of your choice.

#3 is Make a set of puppets or marionettes for the play you have written or for another play.

 #7 is There are sock, stick, and finger puppets.  There are paper bag puppets and marionettes.  Explain their differences and show any puppets you have made for this badge.
