I really enjoyed this particular video. I think that the performing arts is a great way for students to learn about a number of different things. Theatre has proven to help children with speech impediments to lose their stutter or stammer and has also helped children to become less shy. When children act in a theatre production they are playing the role of someone else, not themselves which makes speaking more comfortable.
