project that uses oral histories as its foundation and drama as an exciting way to explore and present them. Daniel A. Kelin, II guides you act by act through every step of the process: choosing a theme, helping students collect oral histories, devising a play to portray them, and staging the play for an audience. You'll watch as adolescents, engaged and challenged by their work, make authentic, meaningful choices and take on new responsibilities as they:   You don't have to be an expert historian or a theatre impresario for Kelin's ideas to work in your classroom. He provides numerous classroom examples to show you how the project has operated successfully in other schools and classrooms, and he gives you all the forms and documents you'll need to get going
