I was unable to be there due to a mock trial conflict unfortunately. However, Colby and Aleeza said we made good progress to a certain extent. The kids who weren&#8217;t acting out the scenes at the time were unruly and unable to focus on the task at hand. It&#8217;s really hard for us to maintain control while rehearsing. Granted, all the kids are pretty young so no one said it would be easy. I think it&#8217;s more so that there are so many of them. Typically there are about 15 kids at each session and usually there are only 2 or 3 of us at each meeting, so that&#8217;s 5-8 kids per jepson student. We&#8217;ve been trying to channel their energy through theater games. Sometimes it gets them to calm down, but sometimes it just engines them.
