Crossing the Road Activity

Crossing the Road Activity

In this fun drama activity, students are put in pairs to improvise scenes about crossing a road. Participants will love to watch peers express their creativity and make bold choices! You will need chairs or other furniture to create a "road" in your classroom. This activity pairs well with lessons on literary conflict and playwriting.
