If yoursquo;re a preservice teacher planning to teach the theatre arts; an in-service secondary teacher considering a foray into teaching theatre; or a theatre professional considering the classroom; therersquo;s a lot to learn. But you donrsquo;t have to know everything to teach well from the start; you just need Theatre in the Secondary School Classroom. Theatre in the Secondary School Classroom is the trusty guide that every new theatre teacher will be grateful to have as a ready reference. Itrsquo;s not an encyclopedia on secondary theatre; but a collection of musts that every beginning instructor needs to know. Theoretical; practical; and friendly; Theatre in the Secondary School Classroom introduces key instructional methods and successful strategies; and works through the problems of practice that face all instructors; regardless of their experience. With discussions of finding appropriate spaces (both personal and physical); assessing studentsrsquo; learning; encouraging involvement; and more; yoursquo;ll find the crucial information you need to hit the ground running. Patterson; McKenna-Crook; and Ellington provide numerous illustrations; model letters to parents; work samples; rubrics; checklists; and example test questions to show you precisely how the nitty-gritty of theatre education plays out. In addition each chapter contains suggested extension activities for students; Internet links to valuable resources and research materials; and experience-won hints on topics of specific interest to the new theatre teacher.
