Mrs. Christensen's Class puts on a Puppet Show
My class got to see a puppet show, make puppets, and then perform a puppet show. Ms. Bean came into our class and performed a puppet show. Then she showed us how to make puppets. To make a puppet you fold it in half and then staple the rest. We wrote a script and the next day we performed our puppet shows with a puppet theater.
