Senior dramateurs present readings
requiring voice changes, movements
Dramatic readings are being
presented to first period Eng
lish classes by the senior drama
teurs this week and next.
These readings are ex
cerpts from various forms
of literary works, such as
plays, novels, and poetry.
Selections are from the fairy
tale “Alice In Wonderland”, the
narrative poem “John Brown’s
Body”, the unique poetry of
“Spoon River Anthology”, and
the Spanish novel “Don Qui
xote”.
Readers’ theatre, as these
readings are called, requires
the use of a script and can
be staged in several differ
ent ways: either in a straight
line on stools, the use of a
definite playing area or the
use of the entire stage.
Actors in readers’ theatre may
take the part of several charac
ters by the use of voice change
and the individualistic body
movements. Lighting, sound ef
fect and make-up may also be
used.
According to Mrs. Betty Fos
ter, drama instructor, readers’
theatre is not a new form of en
tertainment but a new experi
ence for the advanced drama
student.
“The art of reading dramati
cally is a good device, for stu
dents. They are learning to in-
credits, value
course or continue tutoring.
If choosing to continue, the
student may remain with the
same teacher or may change
courses.
The type of work done by the
tutoring assistants will vary ac
cording to the indidivual teach
ers, but for the most part the
course work would entail direct
ly helping students in their class
work and the usual clerical du
ties.
This course is open to all
students who have a desire
and a capacity to help oth
ers, regardless of grade point
averages. Substituting the
Tutorial Assistant course for
a study hall now scheduled
will be done by the coun
selors after application.
With the aid of this new course
teachers’ time will not be spread
as thin as it is now. The student
assistants working beside the
teachers will enable teachers to
spend more time with individual
students.
“Other high schools have used
this method of student-teacher
aids, and found them to be very
effective. We hope that this new
course will be as successful,”
stated Gust Kanas, vi,ce-princi-
pal in charge of curriculum.
Completely removed from the
tutoring system currently spon
sored by the National Honor So
ciety, will be this new course.
NHS will continue its tutoring
system outside of class time,
while this program will operate
during class time.
