The traditional autumn ball at the school originally belonged to seasonal matinees, which are organized for children, starting from kindergarten. At first, these holidays were arranged just to give the kids the opportunity to show their happy parents what they learned: poems, songs, some simple dances.
The autumn ball in elementary school is very similar to such a simple demonstration of abilities, however, even in this case such pleasant traditions as wonderful dance evenings are already beginning to take shape. When developing scenarios for such a holiday, it is extremely important not to discourage children from participating in such events at all, and the teacher has a great responsibility. It is no secret that the autumn ball at school, like other special occasions, usually involves the most talented of students. These are smart children who can be instructed to perform: recitation of poems, songs and other spectacular performances. Nevertheless, the high level of educational talent is the ability to distribute responsibilities at the holiday so that all children are busy according to their talents. As you know, each child has his own talents, and the task of educators and teachers is their disclosure and development. It is with this in mind that a script is created for the autumn ball at school, all students in the class take part in the preparation of the holiday.
It would be right to give children the opportunity to express their thoughts about the autumn ball, sometimes they are capable of unique ideas. Amazing poetic talents come to light among schoolchildren, someone creates beautiful compositions from autumn flowers and a leaf foliage. It would be nice to arrange an exhibition of artwork, a literary competition and other events: an autumn ball at school can be an amazing and even in its own way large-scale action that causes a lot of positive emotions. As invited guests can act as parents of students, as well as representatives of the local administration and the press.
In high school, an important part of the ball is the dance evening. In addition to the solemn program and the demonstration of talents, students should be able to have fun, and the disco becomes an excellent addition to the celebration. At the same time, the autumn ball at school can be considered a kind of rehearsal for the prom, except with much more modest expenditures and a smaller scale. But there is an excellent opportunity to coincide with autumn holidays, ballroom dance training, graduation rehearsal and congratulations of the teaching staff on teacher's day.
It is nice if the students show genuine enthusiasm and wait for the autumn ball, as a wonderful opportunity to relax and have fun. Otherwise, this may indicate a lack of cohesion of the team. Not necessarily the fault of the class teacher, and the students, too, can hardly be considered guilty. The fragmentation and exponential denial of collective aspirations, unfortunately, are a sign of our time. However, even an extremely unfriendly class can be approached. It is not necessary to imagine the autumn ball as an important duty that students will have to fulfill in addition to their wishes. Nothing but an active confrontation will bring pressure. If some students categorically do not want to participate, it makes sense to offer an alternative with the most acceptable signs of a classic ball. For example, an autumn fair, a sports festival or an educational trip. If desired, any scenario can be supplemented with dance elements, because by and large the main sign of the autumn ball is ballroom dancing, and everything else is a cultural program, for which the celebration is started.
