Product Description

Book Description

Young adults and adult learners at intermediate levels of English proficiency will love this collection of plays. Each one represents theater at its best - spiked with humor and written in lively, colloquial American English.
Brief, inexpensive, and flexible, these plays are the ideal supplements to any reading, speaking, or conversation class. The plays can be used in different ways to improve reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills, and each student book is packed with a variety of pre- and post-reading activities that test comprehension and spark lively classroom discussion.
Each of the four plays is adapted from authentic, well-known sources, but rewritten to be accessible to non-native speakers. The Teacher's Edition/Production Notes includes detailed guidelines for actually producing each play, along with annotated copies of each play, complete answer keys, bibliographies, and much more. Class sets of each play (10 per set) are also available for a discounted price.

From the Publisher

Each of the four plays, The Wall, Ten Thousand Baskets, Teh Cowboy and the Wildcat, and The Necklace, is brief and inexpensive enough to supplement other texts and can either be produced as a play or be used as a reader.

Any one or more of the plays in the McGRAW-HILL SPOTLIGHT! SERIES makes a lively addition to any intermediate reading, speaking, or conversation course.

In addition to the plays in the McGRAW-HILL SPOTLIGHT! SERIES Instructor's Production Notes are available.

Each of the four plays includes a variety of activities to assist students with a piece, including vocabulary work, an introduction to the themes of the play, individual and partner/pair activities, stage directions, comprehension activities, and a final glossary.

The Production Notes for each play bound into one volume contains an annotated version of the play with additional activities and suggestions and the answers to all pre- and post-play reading activities. This volume also includes extensive production notes on staging the play in class. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars torn between SYMPATHY and BLAME, 11 May 2003
This review is from: The Necklace, The (Phoenix 60p paperbacks) (Paperback)
.
A heart-breaking story of vanity, whether you regard it as understandable for women, or having crossed the line in this case . . . which surprisingly, in the end, separates readers into those who are overwhelmed by pity, and those who see the tragedy as self-made in not one but two instances.

I can't possibly give out more, without risk of being cursed later for ruining your enjoyment. You simply MUST read and find out for yourself.
