A note from the author:
10 pages of 8 cards each, 80 cards in total. For hot seating rehearsal techniques in classes, and as part of production or exam rehearsals.
There are two options of how to use these cards:
Personally I like to laminate these cards on card (double-sided with the backs) and keep them in bundles 1x Pile of Beginner, 1x Pile of Intermediate, 1x Pile of Advanced. I ensure that I also use the back of the card templates to ensure that the cards work as a whole.
You could print out a complete sheet and give one to each pupil. This way they have almost a scorecard to use when working on this technique, depending on the level that the actor wishes to try at.
Overview of Resource:
30 x Beginner Cards (For use as a good warm up to hot-seating for all level actors, and for KS3 and lower level KS4 / GCSE)
30 x Intermediate Cards (For KS4 / GCSE above, and high level KS3)
20 x Advanced Cards (for KS5 / A Level, and high level KS4 / GCSE)
Category:

Stanislavski (Bundle)
Included:
80 x Hot-Seating Cue Cards
Please note:
Purchasing this document allows you to amend and reproduce the cards in anyway that you wish.
