This nine page script and accompanying lesson material can accommodate up to 26 readers and provides a wonderful way to introduce, conclude (or both) a unit on Homer, Greek literature or the Iliad. The original 24 books of poetry have been condensed into a slightly irreverent script that covers the main characters and plot highlights.
Suggestions for lesson planning are given as well as step by step implementation, RAFT writing assignments and links to online games and resources. If you have never tried readers theater with a class this package will walk you through. If you are looking for a script that can be preformed for other classes, parent’s night or as an educational drama program, you have found it.

Besides the traditional classroom I have taught in the prison system, residential mental health facilities and in theaters across the country. Currently I work in alternative education at John F. Kennedy Middle School in Suffolk, Virginia. I teach English and science for grades 4-8. I also am a Drama Club sponsor at JFKMS and a drama minister at Fools for Christ http://mysite.verizon.net/vze4p7te/foolsforchrist I offer a number of free scripts at that site.
