HOW DO I USE THIS IN MY CLASSROOM? My advice is to order the scripts now so you are prepared ahead of time--by two weeks. Students in a drama class need to read plays and the best way to engage them is by reading aloud. Ask for volunteers to read until everyone feels confident in taking a turn. You will be surprised at how quickly they catch on to how to read a script. By day two, they'll be hooked!
