Explorers, Risk Taking, and Tableau Lesson
What do explorers and theatre artists have in common? A willingness to take risks and work as a team! In this lesson for grades 4-8, students will work in groups, applying what they know about explorers to create dynamic tableaus and still picture stories. This lesson is a fantastic way to integrate social studies learning with drama, by asking students to think more deeply about the lives of explorers and the importance of risk taking in their work.
