Arts Education - Drama
The teacher is
pleased by the
quality of work reflected in the
students' list. It raises some
questions parallel to those
raised by a number of historians
and commentators about the
Columbus landing. Following
are a few examples:
Why did the dome dwellers
think they had a right to
benefit from the valley and
the valley dwellers?
What did the valley
dwellers
think about Lance, the
dome
dwellers and the events
that
lead to their
exploitation?
How did it feel to have
their
way of life interrupted
and
destroyed?
What of children and
other
family members who watched
their parents etc. being
killed and exploited?
Did dome dwellers have
a
right to conquer the
valley
dwellers?
Were the valley
dwellers
justified in resisting?
