Book Description

Excerpt from Dramatized Bible Stories for Young People The dramatizations given here have been made very simple. The words of the story have been taken, for the most part, directly from the Bible narrative, so that the youth is learning Scripture as well as a story. A good preparation for the dramatization is to call together all who are to have a part in the production, and read or tell them the whole story before the parts are assigned. By this plan each is made familiar with the story and its message before he begins to prepare his own part. Few rehearsals are necessary. The ideal way to dramatize a story is to have no printed parts assigned but to allow each person to select the character he prefers and to interpret the part as it appeals to him. This is the most successful plan for use with children. To follow such a method, story-telling or group study must precede the dramatizations. This is often not feasible or easily arranged for young people, so this book, with its suggestions, is designed to help the busy teacher, director or preacher who is interested in giving the young people a chance to help in a way that is natural and enjoyable.
