Seoul American Middle School’s drama classes taught by Robert Heckerl recently partnered with Adolescent Substance Abuse Counselor (ASACS),
Maninder Sharma, to perform almost a dozen skits for Seoul American Elementary school’s (SAES) 4th and 5th graders.
The skits were conceptualized, scripted, and performed, by 7th and 8th grade students, in support of the ASACS program.
Mrs. Sharma believes that educating students on the issues they might face in middle school, well allow them to better handle themselves in these situations.
This year’s skit topics revolve around issues that the 7th and 8th graders at SAMS feel students may commonly face; bullying, peer pressure, cheating, cliques, etc.
All skits were performed with humor and concluded with a positive resolution so that audience members can clearly identify the correct responses and courses of action when trying to cope with these particular issues.
Furthermore, the 7th and 8th graders were able to act as role models for their younger peers at SAES. The performances as always were well-met by the SAES audiences and everyone had a good time while learning how to deal with critical issues they may face as they move on through their school years.
