Description
This lesson focuses on a play-writing exercise--the monologue and beginning acting. Students select a object indicative of Christmas which the teacher provides from this lesson and write a monologue speaking as the object. Then, they design the object and perform their monologue. Students don't even realize they are studying play-writing.
It's such fun!
This lesson was created for a creative dramatics, introduction to theater or creative writing class in Language Arts.
If you are hosting an open house for your students' parents, this would be a nice performance for them to see.
The product includes:
- Letter to teacher with directions for the lesson
- Teacher's script-what I say and how I say it
- Three design pages
- Lined paper for the monologue
- Monologue example
- Extension Activities
No prep for the teacher except copying and cuing up a video clip.
Comprehensive? You bet!
Created and implemented by an award winning, veteran drama teacher of thirty-eight years.
