MoreUnlike traditional Readers Theatre, which is typically limited to literature-based scripts, Curriculum-Based Readers Theatre (CBRT) allows you and your students to create scripts based on any topic, any work of literature, any textbook, or almost any collection of facts. It can be easily incorporated into your existing curriculum, and because this method emphasizes spoken words and gestures, not staged action, no theatrical training or background is necessary.
Author Rosalind Flynn takes a clear and straightforward approach, and the following special features make this already practical resource even more accessible:
Reproducible sample scripts spanning a range of topics and content areas
Script templates to aid scriptwriting
CBRT in Action sections describing students and teachers firsthand experiences
Easy-to-use instructions on computer formatting scripts
