Scripted Fantasy in the Classroom

A step-by-step, practical guide for teachers and students on the technique of script fantasy. A collection of fantasy scripts forms the basis for classroom work across the age and ability range and is particularly effective for students with learning difficulties. The authors demonstrate ways in which scripted fantasy work can enhance students' creative and imaginative powers, listening and communication skills, and increase personal and social awareness. Drawing on their many years' experience in schools and teacher-training institutions, the authors provide clear guidelines for classroom management and suggest a variety of stimulating methods for processing the fantasy experience. They show how fantasy work can be integrated into stress management techniques and provide instructions for simple relaxation techniques for use with both students and teachers.
