Sharing Literature with Improvisation and Readers Theatre: A Session with Nancy Polette ©2003 Nancy Polette
1.Warm Up: Coming To the PartyLittle Miss Muffet | With time to give thought | |
Sat on a tuffet | And to do what she ought | |
Eating her curds and whey | Miss Muffet returned that same day | |
Along came a spider | Though she would grow thinner | |
And sat down beside her | She picked up her dinner | |
And frightened Miss Muffet away | And buried the spider in whey | |
From: Flying with Mother Goose by N. Polette |
Herman found a big dead bug |
Sister put it in the trash |
But before the trash is burned |
Herman wants his bug returned |
