Based on the educational programming offered by The Second City Training Centers in Chicago and Toronto, this book offers educators in all content areas a wide variety of lessons and strategies that connect improvisational exercises to teaching through practical examples of kinesthetic and authentic learning activities. The exercises apply mainly to language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies, and use improv to teach content, build classroom community, and develop cooperative learning skills.
