StoryTelling PowerPoint Game

This public speaking game is a great tool for an English or Speech classroom to encourage listening and speaking in response, creativity, fluency, and more! Get your students' creative juices flowing! For ELA classroom, this can meet speaking/listening standards. For my Public Speaking classroom, I use this to get additional practice speaking in front of the class. It has made them a lot more comfortable and fluid in their speaking styles. The student will click on one of the numbers and be given four words. With those words, the student has to quickly make up a story that includes all of the words. Once your students catch on, you can take it up a notch and have the student take turns creating ONE continuous story! More specifics are included when you download the .zip file. Everything downloaded is copyrighted and can be used for educational purposes. The download includes a PowerPoint presentation and an instructions guide.

Cyrano de Bergerac Cuttings and Activity

(0)
This is a great way to introduce the classic story of Cyrano de Bergerac to your English or Drama students! Let your students really bring classic literature to life! This product contains 2 cuttings from Cyrano de Bergerac. The cuttings are the same part of the story, but one runs almost 15 minutes and the other runs 9-10 minutes. My students used the shorter cutting to place 3rd place at a local competition! This product ALSO contains a version of the script with a handful of reading comprehension questions in the margins, as well as an answer key.
