Albuquerque Popejoy Schooltime Series Announces the 2008-2009 Season

See what's coming in our Pre-K through 12th grade education programs at Popejoy Hall in 2008-2009!



The 2008-2009 year promises a fabulous season of education through the arts!

These one-hour, live performances combine visual, audio and kinesthetic learning modes to create educational theatre experiences. (Shhh. Don't tell the kids, but the arts teach across the curricula and meet all the standards and benchmarks.) Students simply enjoy entertaining performances presented at Popejoy Hall.

Literacy. Communication. Creativity. Imagination.


Once Popejoy receives your payment, we will mail you a Study Guide, a resource specific to each performance.

The Study Guide includes:

synopsis

information on the genre

educational content, references

suggested classroom activities

content standards and benchmarks for attending the performance and any other activities.

Show descriptions and details will be available on our website at: www.schooltimeseries.com in mid-August

Help us to thank our generous sponsors!
PNM, UETF and the McCune Charitable Foundation all help Popejoy Hall to bring quality entertainment to schoolchildren.

We want them to know how instrumental they were in making the Schooltime Series accessible to students.


1. Create a class card dedicated to one of the sponsors listed above
2. Draw a picture on the cover
3. Have the class sign it
4. Tell us your school, grade, teacher's name and show(s) you attended
5. Include a big thank you to the sponsor
6. Mail the card to the address below


To say thank you for doing this, each group card (yes, a homeschool of two is a group) will enter you into a drawing for a free field trip (tickets only) to one of the Schooltime shows next season for your class.
