Part of my district's new evaluation process requires that we have secondary materials for all lessons, including rigging. I have plenty of materials for other technical areas, but nothing for rigging. I'm not looking for anything fancy, but can anyone recommend a basic textbook or source for images dealing with hanging flats and the like? I'm looking for something I can scan into PowerPoint, or just keep in the classroom as a reference for students. I have books about rigging, but nothing that shows how to rig, which is sort of the nature of the subject, considering the risk and all.
It's a dumb requirement. When they do inspections (I mean, evaluations...) they just check off the box to see if it exists, and my evaluation is right in the middle of our rigging unit. It's almost as much fun as being told I needed to display student work, and the set the class built didn't count because it wasn't on their list of approved items.
