In 1901, Annie Edson Taylor went over Niagara Falls in a barrel. This session uses authentic photographs and text, with Chris van Allsburg’s picture book Queen of the Falls, to explore this event. Drama strategies will be presented as ‘thought and talk’ frames and considered as possible writing frames.
