Zusammenfassung:	Teachers face enormous problems motivating students who don't like to read. In this book, Nancy King shows how storymaking and drama are powerful ways to engage students as they read novels, plays, poetry, and autobiography, and how both students and teachers benefit from educational opportunities based on dialogue rather than lecture. In Storymaking and Drama teachers will find thoughtful, practical, inventive, and creative ways to explore literature and drama in the classroom. The book is designed to support teachers as they seek ways to find their own approaches to teaching and learning. The author has included many stories from around the world to make the book a joy to read and help to stimulate the development of new ideas for classroom educational practice. This book reflects Nancy King's forty years as a professional educator, with a personal focus on creating a meaningful and creative dialogue between herself and her students, and among her students as independent learners. Storymaking and Drama makes clear that students who are encouraged to explore their inner experience as they read - to discover their unique response to literature, and to use their thoughts and feelings to create meaning from what they read - are students who are empowered to love literature for the rest of their lives.
