I think that’s a very solid idea, and it fits well with the curriculum we’re building. Improv forces students to think on their feet, but the framework of a scene gives them a safe space to experiment. By guiding them through a few structured prompts and then letting them improvise, you’ll give them the confidence to adapt without losing the lesson’s focus. Let’s draft a lesson plan that balances the two and see how it plays out in class.

Here’s a quick outline: start with a breathing warm‑up, give a single prompt like “a lost puppy in a bakery,” have the students split into pairs, then let them improvise for two minutes while you drop subtle cues such as “add a secret ingredient” or “introduce a sudden rainstorm.” After each run, pause for a quick debrief, pointing out how they adapted. Keep the energy high but the structure clear, and I’m sure the kids will light up when they see their own flexibility in action.

I’m glad you like it. I’ll pencil it in for next week, set a reminder, and we’ll prep the props. Let’s make sure the class starts on time, so the spontaneity stays fresh. Looking forward to the laughs and those “aha” moments.
