I'm inspired by this work in the living classroom:



When we were in Paris in December, we went to the Musée d'Orsay and saw a beautiful exhibit from Le Chat Noir , which had a shadow puppet theatre. A rowdy one, though.

Last year, all of my students enjoyed Peter and the Wolf, and we used our bodies to create the shadowed characters. The idea of shadow puppets as a means of expression, though...some children might really grasp on to that.

Have you ever used shadow puppets in your classroom?
