This Is A Good Activity To Do Following A Unit On Short Stories
To review for a short story unit exam, class members engage in a talk show activity where individuals adopt the persona of characters from the unit's stories, sit for an interview, and answer questions posed by the class. Ask actors to dress the part, play the role of host, and film the exchange for playback.
