Valuable Source for Teaching Our Town, May 22, 2010
This review is from: Our Town: Reproducible Teaching Unit (Paperback)
This teaching packet is based on the written version of the play and is intended to be a complete study guide for the individual student. It comes hole-punched, with publisher permission to reproduce for classroom use. It includes clearly stated student objectives, questions for essays or discussion with suggested responses, a multiple-choice unit test with answer key, and study guide questions for Acts I, II, and III with answer key. The unit provides some author background, and discusses the 4 major themes of the play, as well as its use of allegory and motifs. It also explores ways in which the play departs from traditional methods of staging and draws parallels between the use of the Stage Manager and the Chorus in ancient Greek theatre. This is a useful resource for teaching the play or studying it individually.
