Atelier Bleu Majjjiiik theatre company, has been touring French and immersion schools in Canada since 1986. The company was made a spokesperson of the Associates Schools Project Network (ASPNET) of UNESCO in view of the values passed on to young audiences and its commitment to the greater welfare of children. The company tours with five productions for children ages 5 to 14 and their parents. The themes deal with childrens experiences, concerns and wishes. Accordingly, theatre becomes an awareness-raising tool for social education skills and citizen responsibility. The company explores several mediums: acting, mask and puppetry. To push its step, it conceives and realizes educational documents for the pupils, the teachers and the parents. It also created the Rivière Bleue collection published by the Chenelière Éducation publishing house.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Strong from
35 years of experience in Francophone and immersion schools throughout Canada, the Bleu M'ajjjiiik workshop offers a way to approach personal motivation in students or behaviour in groups, through the use of theatre.
Each show has an interactive component, allowing students to internalize the theme of the play, to find, on their own, favourable attitudes and to bring solutions to conflicts.
Documents for teachers, students, and parents are provided for each of the shows. The five shows offered are:
|
When you see red | To counter bullying | ||
|
Face to face | On the respect of one and others differences | ||
|
It's not my fault | On rights and responsibilities | ||
|
There in some of me under there | On self-esteem | ||
|
School rules: It's better to take them laughing than crying | On the rules of life, for better group life |
