 Projects also revolve around a variety of study topics,
ranging from social studies and history to literature
and folk tales. Furthermore, projects may can
combine several topics for a more comprehensive
learning experience.
Puppets used during workshop sessions include ones
supplied directly by the guild and those created by the
students themselves. Workshop sessions employ
both simply-made and highly crafted puppets
comprised of an assortment of materials that include
both recycled items and traditional puppet-making
components.
