DISCOUNT 30%! Hey, new teacher! Are you looking for year-long theater education curriculum and help from an award winning, veteran drama teacher? These units are best taught to students in sixth grade through ninth grade, however some units work well with sixth grade.

I created a gigantic bundle of drama lessons, units and plays to help you! This bundle includes 55 products (over 1,500 PAGES) which were all created by me and time tested in my classroom over thirty-eight years. This is the closest thing to a "sure thing" you can find.
