Drama Script & Cards to Teach Divergent, Parallel, and Convergent Lines
This is a dramatized version of a story that famous educator Maria Montessori created. It was recorded by Michael J. Dorer in his 2017 book, The Deep Well of Time and is known in the Montessori community as " The Love Story of the Lines" (yet my version isn't a love story). I adapted his script into a 4-page play (about 10-15 min.) that can be performed with a class forming two lines facing each other while the teacher narrates the script. You do not need to be a Montessori school or own Monte

Two Player Skits: scripts for acting or reader's theatre
The mini-play advantage…
The mini-play works very well for students who have completed their work early and need a little challenge (not another worksheet!).
The skits are fun-filled reading material for students who don’t like reading much of anything else.
The skits can be as demanding or as undemanding as you please when it comes to sets, properties and costumes.
If the student chooses to memorize, the amount of lines is not overwhelming.
Each skit is two to three minutes in length

ALICE IN WONDERLAND - a multimedia play, adapted for the classroom

To switch things up a little I decided to tackle Alice in Wonderland. This story was tricky to adapt for the classroom as there are a lot of special effects needed; and thus, my multimedia play adaptation was born!
