Scene Self-Staging: Teaching Students to Block Theatrically and Independently

by Lindsay Price

You need your students to work independently on a scene but when it's time to present they seem to have forgotten everything you've taught them. Scene Self-Staging gives students a process to follow to help them produce a fully staged scene with specific dynamic blocking and three-dimensional characters.

The digital edition of Scene Self-Staging: Teaching Students to Block Theatrically and Independently is available for free for Drama Teacher Academy members. Visit DramaTeacherAcademy.com to download or learn more about becoming a Drama Teacher Academy member.

Scene Self-Staging: Teaching Students to Block Theatrically & Independently provides an in-depth step-by-step process to help students master their scenes - from choosing a scene to script analysis to presentation.

All material is geared toward independent, student-driven staging - and you can be as involved or as hands-off as you wish. Assessment suggestions are provided for each step, or you can just use the Performance Rubric.

Help your students stage their scenes to the best of their ability – and do it all without you!
