Description

In this ReadWriteThink lesson, students work in cooperative groups to create semi-impromptu skits using unique props distributed in paper bags. Students then use online tools to outline the story elements in their skits. The lesson also promotes listening skills and critical thinking as students view other groups' performances and determine the conflict and resolution of each.
