This engaging and practical book includes numerous exercises and activities as well as a wealth of advice for primary and junior teachers who teach drama and those teachers who want to include drama more broadly across the curriculum.
Drama serves a valuable purpose in the educational system. Students not only learn about theatre but also about themselves and others, something which helps prepare them for life.
This book will help you as a teacher understand the place of drama in the curriculum, suggest how to integrate drama into other subject areas, provide a large number of lesson plans and ideas for drama activities, and, in general, show how valuable a drama program can be.
The book also includes five plays written by the author that are ideal for staging in the classroom or in front of a larger audience of parents and peers.
Key topics covered in the book include:
- the creative process
- elements of drama
- forms of drama
- building student confidence
- integrating drama into other subjects
- creative and dramatic play
- drama games
- acting basics
- putting on a play
