Drama and Learning
• What is creative drama? – A powerful learning medium that emerges
from the spontaneous play of young children.
– Highest level of symbolic play
– Children develop roles and language.
– Children have a natural interest in play and enjoy “acting out” events.

Drama and Learning
• How does drama match how young children learn?– Young children learn through play and
experiences within their environment.– Drama provides a connection between
language and movement, bridging the spoken word and the real thing.
– Drama provides opportunities for social interaction and feedback.

Drama and Learning
• Drama uses multisensory learning– The dramatic arts involve three of
Gardner’s intelligences:• Bodily-kinesthetic, spatial, and linguistic
– Using different intelligences makes connections between different parts of the brain and integrated thinking.

Drama and Learning
• Benefits of Creative Drama– Language Development– Extemporaneous Speaking • Selecting words, gestures, and voices they
will use as the drama is occurring.
– Social and Emotional Development– Developing Imagination

Drama and Learning
• Sociodramatic Play– The imaginative play that occurs during
the early years of a child’s life. – Children explore familiar experiences as
they take on roles, develop sequences, and use language in the activity
– Helps children to move from egocentric thinking to adjusting and adapting to others.
– Allows them to practice roles as they try to understand how the world works.

Drama and Learning
• Creative Dramatics and Play Making–Children participate by improvising,
dialog, and action.–The goal is the personal
development of the players instead of a professional performance.– It is guided by the teacher, but
seldom includes any scenery or costumes.
