Historical Figure: A Monologue. ArtsEdge Curricula, Lessons and Activities.
Fox, Mary Ann
In this lesson, each fourth-grade student is asked to choose a famous person who was born in his/her state, research the person's contributions to history, write a monologue, and then perform the monologue using a costume and/or a prop. The lesson offers an overview; suggests lesson length and grade level; lists subjects and subtopics; cites dimensions of learning and intelligences being addressed; notes equipment and materials needed; lists teacher resources; and addresses National Standards for Arts Education and other standards. It also cites instructional objectives and strategies; provides a detailed, step-by-step instructional plan; and suggests assessment and extension activities. (NKA)
