Essay Instructions: Ootline and Thesis Statement for a research paper that direction is as followed:

The text book and study standard of theater history for 4th grade students only emphasize on California now. However, we do believe that that is not enough for the 4th grade students. They should also learn more about other countries?? theater history but not only been narrowed in California. For example, cartoon which has involved with the children most now is from Japan. Therefore, we do believe that they have should learn more about the world but not only focus on a narrow place. Also, we believe that if they learn more early they could have an opener mind.

Please give some foreign theater history that could be important for us too know. Or that can influence us.

Because I am an international student, please do not use too difficult and professional words.
