Students will analyze the adaptations of 'Matilda' and 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' by examining the original texts and corresponding stage versions, discussing differences and artistic choices with peers, and using insights to identify key elements for their own scene adaptation project.

Students will collaboratively design and develop their original scene adaptations for a chosen book, focusing on writing scripts, creating storyboards, and planning stage directions with input from peers and local theater partners.

Students will collaborate to implement their original scene adaptations from a chosen book, using teacher and peer feedback to refine and practice their performance while critically comparing their work to the adaptations of 'Matilda' and 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.'
