Summary: Bring history alive!
Comment: I am an 8th grade social studies teacher and have found this a useful classroom tool. The kids have really gotten into performing these plays.
There is a nice range here- from Fort Sumter (which is great because it offers a female perspective) to Reconstuction. The plays offer bits of insight into the human side of the Civil War as well as fun bits of trivia. I needed a way to teach the Emancipation Proclamation and the Frederick Douglass play offered views from both the north and south as well as white and African American. I am also happy to say that generally quiet students participate with the plays. Some parts as quite large others just two lines. This really works well with a mixed class and offers good "sparks" for wrap up discussions.
It was nice to see my students think about these people and events and even relate a little bit!

Summary: Read-Aloud Plays: Civil War
Comment: I use this book in both my classroom and at home with my own children (ages 8 and 10). It has been invaluable for sparking their interest in the Civil War, and history in general.
This is a classroom MUST. There is no better way to inspire an interest in history than allowing the children, themselves to participate as the actual historical figures themselves.
I am a sixth grade teacher, and have been recommending this book to my colleagues.
