152 Nursery Rhymes and Fables: Supplemental Guide 8A | Little Bo Peep

On Stage

• Tell students that they are going to dramatize—or act out—“Little Bo
  Peep.”


• Remind students that nursery rhymes are short poems enjoyed by
  young children.


• Arrange students into groups of four.


• Have each group decide who will be Little Bo Peep, who will be
  the two sheep, and who will be the narrator—the one who tells the
  nursery rhyme.


• Then have each group practice how they will act out this nursery
  rhyme.


• Finally, have each group act it out.
  
  
  • The narrator may replace Bo with the name of the student who
    plays Bo Peep, e.g., Little [Gracie] Peep.
  
  
  
  


• If time allows, follow-up with discussion about how their
  performances were similar and different.
