Summary "Drama Activities for K-6 Students: Creating Classroom Spirit provides dramatic strategies and age-appropriate stories and poems from around the world to address such issues as sharing, caring, cooperation, consequences, and bullying in order to create a positive classroom environment. The students's enactments take them to different locations around the globe, back in time, and into their very own neighborhoods. The various theatrical forms include pantomime plays, shadow theater, living newspaper, story theater, museum theater, and creative tableaus, spanning the full spectrum of current drama used in the classroom." "To help students create their own variations of the stories with their own dialogue, Milton E. Polsky, Dorothy Napp Schindel, and Carmine Tabone provide easy-to-follow structures. The frameworks of warm-up development and wrap-up allow teachers and students to discover challenging inquiry and writing techniques and participate in mind-opening discussion and enrichments that can be applied across the curriculum. All activities are designed to promote a deeper sense of trust, mutual respect, and pride in working together. This book will top a teacher's must-have list of practical books for the classroom."--BOOK JACKET
