7th Grade Drama Project

Next week, seventh grade students will begin a drama project. Details for the project are below:

Rationale
Each student will employ the elements of drama that we have been studying in class in order to create, edit, and stage an original drama.

Procedure
1. Team captains will be appointed by Ms. Short and cooperative teams will be chosen.
2. Students will be assigned a topic on which to base their play.
3. Students will brainstorm and storyboard their play.
4. Students will assign group roles such as scriptwriter, costumer, scenery decorator, etc.
5. Students will write and edit their scripts, create scenery and costumes, and begin practicing their
plays.
6. Students will meet with Ms. Short periodically to discuss their group’s progress and ask for any
needed support.
7. Students will present their dramas in front of the class.

*Throughout the entire project, the group leader will be responsible for logging the activities of each student in the group. Logs will be reviewed and collected by Ms. Short on a regular basis.

I think this test is important because some of the students want to pass esl and pass other calss and if there was not no new york s test would not help cause kids would not no what they are doing and now we have the test it's good u pass or fall because u are going to pass the other year and that is why i say that it's good for us and other we should have it more aver year.
