• Be ready to teach the Cambridge IGCSE Drama syllabus with the second edition of this popular series.
• Have full confidence in the content and approach of the series which is written by a team of highly experienced authors, who have over 20 years of teaching experience.
• Enable students to learn a range of skills, such as how to build their self-awareness and how to reflect on their performance. This will build their knowledge and self-confidence, which extends beyond the course itself and helps equip them for life.
• Know that the series has an international feel in terms of both language used within the text, and plays, scenarios and contexts selected.
• Make use of the excellent supporting components of the series which include a range of exciting and engaging scripts from real plays, role plays for warm ups, examples of stimuli for devised pieces, and still images from productions which show key elements from performances.
• Help students monitor their learning using the ‘Learning Log’ and ‘Check your progress’ features, where students review, record and evaluate their work.
• The second edition includes a new focus on extending the repertoire, including site-specific and immersive theatre, as well as extra support for writing about texts in performance.
