Overview
Introducing New Content Through Drama Kennedy Center Workshop
In this workshop, teachers will learn how to use text as a springboard to create tableaus that help students examine the meaning of the text passages. Tableaus help students apply and expand their knowledge and understanding of the curriculum by asking them to take on the roles of people or objects to create living pictures. Teachers can use them to assess the students' comprehension of specific facts, concepts, or big ideas. Tableaus can also be used to introduce, reinforce, and evaluate vocabulary. Instruction led by Kassie Misiewicz.
