If you teach middle or secondary drama...,
This review is from: Stages: Creative Ideas for Teaching Drama (Paperback)
Although I have a degree in theatre, this is my first year teaching and this book has been my bible! Activities are broken up into appropriate categories such as warm-ups, storytelling, character work,...I can't praise it enough. It's fantastic when I'm planning for a substitute too, as all of the activities are in plain language and easy to carry out for even the most inexperienced in the drama classroom. One of my mentor teachers used this and Dan Diggles' book 'Improv for Actors' in conjunction with one another, and let me say that the two have made my life considerably easier!

This review is from: Stages: Creative Ideas for Teaching Drama (Paperback)
I used Stages to teach a 7th grade drama class. The variety of stage games got the class ready for each day's assignment. I found it to be very helpful.

Extremely Practical!! A must for every drama teacher!,
By Abbey Smith - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stages: Creative Ideas for Teaching Drama (Paperback)
I cannot say enough great things about this drama book. I have never written an amazon review before, but because I love this book so much I felt the need to tell others about it. I teach 6th-8th grade drama and I use this book every single day. The descriptions are clear and easy to understand. Each exercise has an objective listed and is extremely practical. If I have extra time in my lesson I just pick up this book and am able to find and explain an exercise in a matter of seconds. I have worn it out so much it might be time for another copy soon. I've tried using other drama books but the exercises and explanations are too complicated to be practical. This book is excellent and I recommend it to anyone who teaches middle or high school drama.
