- Performance - it is done for others' benefit
First, read this section of the text if you haven't (pages 11-18), because the application of these terms to the theatre is not what you might expect. Then, pick one that is relevant to your field of study and identify how you will use it in your career. If you are undeclared, you may pick any field that interests you.

Extra Credit opportunity: Since so many people did not do Homework #2, here is a chance to make up for it. Extra credit is available by applying all four of these elements to your career field.
Note: If a certain element just does NOT fit your area of study whatsoever, then you may apply three elements to your career, and apply the fourth element to another activity you enjoy (be it soccer, playing violin, cooking, etc.).

One of the main occupations of theatre is work. Work can be related to elementary education in several ways. Work in the theatre includes rehearsal, researching, planning, and creating. In the field of elementary education, rehearsal is indeed a factor to becoming a teacher. Before you step into a classroom, you need to be able to know what your doing by rehearsing. An example of rehearsing would be student teaching. This allows the soon to be teacher to get experience by working in the classroom with another adult. In addition, teachers need to plan out how they are going to run their classroom, what they are going to teach and how they are going to teach it. They also need to plan out how the classroom will be set up, what the students will be learning (lesson plans), etc. Finally, creating activities and ways to help the students learn in the classroom takes time and patients. Teachers may need a whole summer just to plan out the school year. In the end, elementary education can relate to theatre works in many ways.
