101 READERS THEATER The Little Rock Nine had been warned not to respond to harassment at school. They were also told that they were not to come to one another s defense. It was too dangerous. To help them deal with the pressure, Ernest Green recalls, We were visited and supported by a young divinity student from Vanderbilt University, Jim Lawson. Jim was a very strong supporter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and a student of nonviolence. It was his support and counseling that helped give us strength to endure each day. It was the feeling of faith, family support and the belief that we were doing the right thing that allowed us to look possible physical danger in the face each morning and not blink. Agenda: Readers Theater Museum Tuesday, February 10, 2015

102 READERS THEATER One day just before Christmas vacation, one of the Little Rock Nine did more than blink. You are going to Read The Chili Incident and discuss it briefly with a partner. When everyone is done we are going to do an activity around this reading. Agenda: Readers Theater Museum

103 READERS THEATER In groups of 5 or 6 you are going to work on an interpretation of one of the paragraphs You have 15 minutes to prepare an interpretation of your reading. This activity is an attempt to deepen the moment the writer is trying to convey. For example, you may decide to do a choral reading (everyone reading in unison), or you may decide to have one person narrate while the others stand or move as appropriate. Consider using their voices in different ways or adding sounds to enhance the moment. When you finish planning, we will start with the group that has the first section of the reading and go through the entire passage, one group at time, with no pauses or breaks between groups. Agenda: Readers Theater Museum

121 READERS THEATER The Little Rock Nine had been warned not to respond to harassment at school. They were also told that they were not to come to one another s defense. It was too dangerous. To help them deal with the pressure, Ernest Green recalls, We were visited and supported by a young divinity student from Vanderbilt University, Jim Lawson. Jim was a very strong supporter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and a student of nonviolence. It was his support and counseling that helped give us strength to endure each day. It was the feeling of faith, family support and the belief that we were doing the right thing that allowed us to look possible physical danger in the face each morning and not blink. Agenda: Readers Theater Tuesday, February 10, 2015

122 READERS THEATER One day just before Christmas vacation, one of the Little Rock Nine did more than blink. You are going to Read The Chili Incident and discuss it briefly with a partner. Agenda: Readers Theater When everyone is done we are going to do an activity around this reading. Tuesday, February 10, 2015

123 READERS THEATER In groups of 5 or 6 you are going to work on an interpretation of one of the paragraphs You have15 minutes to prepare an interpretation of your reading. This activity is an attempt to deepen the moment the writer is trying to convey. For example, you may decide to do a choral reading (everyone reading in unison), or you may decide to have one person narrate while the others stand or move as appropriate. Consider using their voices in different ways or adding sounds to enhance the moment. When you finish planning, we will start with the group that has the first section of the reading and go through the entire passage, one group at time, with no pauses or breaks between groups.
