I have many links to drama lesson plans on this page....I got many of them
from BJ. --so some will be duplicates.

One unit I did was dance helmets (a few years ago)--inspired by North West
Coast Native American art --as well as the dance costumes in the Jungle Book
ballet that my students were going to see...The students did their "spirit
animals" --and also wrote a skit/story about them. All students had to dance
wearing their helmets---which was tough because they turned out too heavy to
wear comfortably---but we all had fun!
This was a unit that I did TOGETHER with my student teacher. This was my
first student teacher....Our ideas meshed together quite nicely. This unit
was one I had planned for quite a while. I was lucky to have a supervisor
from the university that like our style of "team teaching"....Bet you folks
are surprised to here I am "too controlling" to have a student teacher
(giggle).
