Grades 6–8
Fun, collaborative activities get students out of their seats and learning by doing
Center Stage: Projects in Theatre Arts does the legwork for busy teachers, pulling together, in one resource, a flexible collection of stimulating activities grounded in the latest standards.
Divided into two parts, Part I focuses on creative drama processes with an emphasis on improvisation. Part II focuses on formal theatre as well as oral interpretation, storytelling, and theatre in the digital age.
Each part opens with a Curtain Raiser that provides an overview and warmup activities to prepare students for the activities that follow. Each chapter features one major project plus many additional suggestions for further work. Everything the student needs to know for preparing and presenting the activity is given in easy-to-follow steps.
The consistent chapter structure makes Center Stage easy to teach and sets a routine for the teacher and students. Each chapter previews the content in the chapter and introduces key words and guiding questions with ready-made activities.
