Unpunctuated Scenes with Eric Braman
Learning Target: I can collaborate thoughtfully with my work group to create an original piece of theatre.
Learning Summary: Students will engage in an improv game to practice collaboration through a listening, observation, and response exercise. They will then work on short scenes in pairs to explore how punctuation can change the meaning and tone of a story. The lesson will result in a final performance of a short script that combines the ideas and contributions of the group members.
Arts Standard: TH:Cr2-4.b. Make and discuss group decisions and identify responsibilities required to present a drama/theatre work to peers.
SEL Standard: "Standard 5: Responsible Decision-Making & Curiosity: Demonstrate curiosity and analysis of oneself and society in order to make caring choices that impact personal, social, and collective well-being across situations and environments."
