The Swimming Hole is a four-act script that allows students to perform roles at differentiated reading levels to accommodate all students. Students will interact cooperatively with their peers, learn to speak with feeling and meaning, increase their vocabulary and comprehension, and develop stage presence. A glossary is included to engage students further with this fun play about Japan's snow monkeys who didn't like to play in winter until their discovery of nearby hot springs.
