Drama One Curriculum Choice Boards

What if you are working on the Drama One Curriculum and you have an unexpected absence? We’ve put together Choice Board Activities for each unit in the Curriculum. • The choice board is a tic tac toe grid (three rows of three activities) of independent drama activities. • Each square of the grid has a different title of an activity. Each activity comes with an instruction sheet. • There are activities that can be completed in the classroom or at home without internet access. There are a few activities that require access to materials (but are pretty flexible with that definition) or internet access for research. Some activities have a presentation as their final product.

Designing Your Virtual Classroom

When teaching classes via video conferencing, it’s good to think about what’s going on behind you. This doesn’t mean pets walking through your virtual classroom or visible piles of laundry in view of your camera, although those should probably be kept out of view as much as possible! Having an interesting and creative background can grab students’ attention, be a conversation starter, or make them laugh. It’s also fun to switch things up and create a fresh atmosphere for your virtual classroom.

Laban's Eight Efforts

Rudolf Laban was a choreographer and a dancer. He defined human movement into eight efforts. Each movement has four component parts (direction, speed, weight, flow). Those four component parts have two elements to them (direct/indirect, quick/sustained, heavy/light, bound/ free). Use these “efforts” to give your students specific choices when it comes to character's physicalization. Choose an effort that defines how they move.

Shakespeare and Race Resource

During Shakespearean times, the roles William Shakespeare wrote were played by white men and performed for a typically white audience. Nowadays, Shakespearean plays are being modernized as companies put on productions that utilize color-conscious casting. Color-conscious casting specifically takes into consideration an actor’s skin color and ethnicity. And you can go further to include consideration of an actor’s gender, shape, mobility, etc. Through this resource students will be able to: • Explore what it means to have BIPOC actors perform Shakespeare. • Analyze and perform Shakespearean texts as they look at the stories through a color-conscious lens. • Critically think about how we can adapt Shakespeare to reflect today’s society. With this resource, students will be able to take ownership of the text and use Shakespeare to tell the stories they want to tell.
