Good resource Amazon Customer Use this book with older students and they enjoy the activities.. Great book for kids. I bought this for my daughter who was at the time 8. (Now 10) & her acting coach suggested this nook. I'm glad I bought it because she loves it. It really does help her to become a great actress.. Crachel said Needs to be more clearly written, but useful in the classroom. This has some great suggestions for how to implement improv in the classroom, and it lists some great games. Some of the games and the way they are written were difficult to understand.
