great plays
By Maureen

Clip to ScrapBook   
I don't know what history you are studying, but Bad Wolf Press has the BEST musical plays for classrooms. I'm in California and they have one for early California history. It cost $29.99 and it was the best money I ever
spent on my classroom.

The students BEGGED me to listen to and/or sing the songs. You get a script and a CD or tape with all the music on it. It is very easy to do. I know they have plays on the westward movement, the 13 colonies, the gold rush, and cultural diversity. They also have ones related to science (rainforest and space) and language arts topics (fables and tall tales).

We performed ours for parents and we did not do a fancy production at all (very minor costumes, and props, students even used their scripts) and the parents still LOVED it. The kids learned a lot too. The length of the play was about 35 minutes.
