The Sniper

Break into groups, read and take notes for the group’s section of the Irish/British Conflict.

Write at least one important date on the time line on the board.

Prepare what the narrator is going to read:

It should be the over view of what the presentation will be about.

Each group should have a poster or some sort of visual that people can look at and/or read to understand the main idea.

The students can have bullet points for the poster.

Each group should prepare a script dramatizing the events for their section of the history of the Irish/British conflict.

Each group should rehearse their scene(s).

ON THE DAY OF THE PRESENTATION:

The narrator should give to the audience the main ideas and the important dates for her/his group’s section. A visual of some sort, such as a poster, should be displayed to help with the audience’s understanding.

Then each group should act out the important events of its part of the Irish history handout.
