Tasha, you might want to use this for your drama class, but I'm also going to use the tableaux strategy for Midsummer , which is on the list on the right side as well. I've done it before and it's a great way to test understanding of a scene and character motivations.

Thanks, Melissa. At a Foldger Workshop I went to last year we did a very simple but effective activity I used a lot with Macbeth and Taming last year. You start by giving pairs two lines of dialogue from the play and say that they have to be on different physical levels (one standing, one kneeling, etc.). Then, when they are presenting a short scene, you remind them to incorporate levels and even a tableau to end the scene. It's amazing how it eliminates the standing-lock-kneed-at-the-front-of-the-room-awkietown-style issue. 

I think that visual image made my day. So thank YOU.
