Download or read book The Teaching of Drama in the Primary School written by Brian George Woolland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of drama in primary school has been elevated in recent years, with many teachers continuing to make it high priority in their teaching. They recognise that it can enrich children's understanding of the world and motivate and encourage them in other curriculum work. This lively and readable book offers a blend of theory and practice based on the author's own considerable experience as a drama teacher. He provides numerous examples taken from work with children in schools, which will help teachers to prepare for drama sessions in the classroom. The book examines the role of drama as a subject in its own right as well as its role in delivering other aspects of the curriculum within primary education. It assumes no prior knowledge of teaching drama and will therefore be useful to trainee teachers and in-service teachers wanting to make use of drama in their daily teaching.

Book Synopsis The DRAMA BOOK for Primary School by : Allen Kerr
Download or read book The DRAMA BOOK for Primary School written by Allen Kerr and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-06-08 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book for teachers of primary school children, which will help both the novice and seasoned professional to plan exciting lessons that fit in with the Scottish Government's new Curriculum for Excellence. The themes and issues chosen for exploration in this edition reflect the broad scope of the current curriculum, with its wide ranging and 'holistic' approach to learning and teaching, and all the Lesson Plans are completely suitable and relevant for continuing use under the still evolving curriculum. At the end of each lesson, the Outcomes & Experiences, as contained in the Curriculum for Excellence guidelines, are given for that lesson. Please refer to the appropriate section of these guidelines for the full interpretation of the codes, by visiting: www.curriculumforexcellencescotland.com. The book retains the format of the original edition, and is composed of a series of Lesson Plans or Lesson Sequences, with each Plan covering a particular theme or issue. Some of the lessons will enlarge and expand upon material covered in previous chapters, but with more detail or different emphases. Shopping, for example, is a more detailed exploration of a section in the Our Food Lesson Plan, and is included here in response to feedback from teachers, who found it to be the most popular Lesson among pupils in P1-P3 - and the most requested! Again, the Plans are ordered in relation to the pupils' age and their stage - P1 to P7 - within the school. Once again, however, it should be emphasised that a class of pupils will not learn at the same pace, nor work at the same level as each other. Teachers, therefore, should utilise fully the flexibility of the Lesson Plans by adapting them to suit the ability of the pupils in their class. For example, a Lesson Plan suggested for P3 or P4 may also be given to P6 or P7 (and vice versa), with appropriate and imaginative modifications. Also, in the same lesson, pupils may contribute at levels of varying degrees according to their individual abilities. As always, the shared experience of the lesson is the key issue. An expanded Glossary of drama terms and definitions is included in the Book, as well as further suggestions for extension work, useful websites, and relevant resources and materials. It should be emphasised once more that this edition represents the latest stage of an evolving 'work-in-progress', with infinite scope for growth and expansion as future ideas and possibilities are created by the continuing evolution
Book Synopsis Drama and Reading for Meaning Ages 4-11 by : Larraine S. Harrison

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drama and Reading for Meaning Ages 4-11 contains over 40 creative drama ideas to help develop reading for meaning in the primary school. The wide range of clearly explained, structured and engaging drama activities will appeal to all primary practitioners who wish to develop more creative approaches to the teaching of reading. The activities show how drama can develop some of the skills associated with reading for meaning such as empathising with characters’ feelings, exploring settings and themes and making inferences based on evidence. The step-by-step activities range from familiar classroom drama strategies such as freeze-frames and hot-seating to less well-known approaches involving whole class drama experiences. The book also serves as an introduction to using drama as a learning medium, with advice on how to set the ground rules and clear explanations of the drama strategies. Each chapter has a detailed explanation of what to do, followed by a number of examples linked to quality texts, including poetry and non-fiction. From bringing books to life in reception and Years 1 and 2, to peeling back the layers of meanings in Years 3 to 6, all the drama activities in this book are designed to improve reading for meaning and help motivate children to read for pleasure, making this an essential resource for all primary settings.
