6.CR.1.3 Create simple costumes or masks for dramatic presentations.
This page lists 2 units aligned to 6.CR.1.3 from the North Carolina Essential Standards 2024. Designed for drama teachers, these resources directly address 6.CR.1.3 - Create simple costumes or masks for dramatic presentations.
If the costumes in a play are going to be effective, we need to be thoughtful about how we use them.
In this mini-unit, students will demonstrate their understanding costume effectiveness and address the following questions: What is the role of costume in the performance? How does color contribute? How does the style of costume affect a performance? How does costume indicate setting? Do you need costumes in a scene?
Once students have completed the five Tech Theatre Units (Lighting, Sound, Costume, Staging, Free Play Makeup), you can give them this culminating project.
Depending on how you structured your technical theatre unit, you can adapt this project to suit your needs and context.
Up to this point, all the work in the units have been exploratory. This is where students will apply their skills and knowledge.
