Acting Exams: A Teacher's Guide accompanies the LAMDA Acting Anthology, Volume 3, which contains all of the scenes that were set for LAMDA Acting exams at Grades 1-5 from 2014-2019. Many teachers will now want to use these set scenes as own-choice pieces for LAMDA Exams or for festival performances or auditions, and this book will be an invaluable resource in the teaching and rehearsal room. For each Level 1 (Grades 1-3) solo scene and duologue scene, this book provides a two-page chapter of teaching ideas. These ideas include group and solo work and range from voice and movement exercises, character studies, improvisations and themed games to research tasks, creative writing and art projects. This book also covers essential acting skills and contains a wealth of general advice on teaching drama to children. As such, it will be of huge value to any teacher, not only those whose students will be working on one of the set scenes it covers.This volume of Acting Exams: A Teacher's Guide provides resources for teachers preparing students to perform one of the Level 1 (Grades 1-3) set pieces from the LAMDA Acting Anthology, Volume 3 (2014-2019).
