Drama in Education Part 2
Agenda - Lessons to Improve our Understanding of Drama:
- Connecting to our drama space
- Sound Scape
- Coral Reading
Get Ready For Some Choral Work!
- In our second class, we learned about Sound Scape and Coral Reading.
- We began by having a class gathering to discuss who lives in a garden
- We were divided into groups: bees, wasps, etc.
- Why did we do this?
- This is an educational tool for students to envision their thoughts and regain that classroom community.
- I also helps students get into their comfort zone
- Reviewing Curriculum expectations was an important part of this class, as well as Theory of Universal Design and creating an atmosphere inclusive to any exceptionalities.
Sound Scape? Get Your Cape.
- We took Soundscape, and reviewed the elements of choral work
- We used non-fiction texts side by side with choral reading to create roles, adding embodiment, movement, and gestures!
- Afterward, we began reading ladybug garden overtop of the readings.
- Throughout the story, our coral work was being represented. Such a cool experience!
Reflections of the Day? OR Just in Role?
- Pairing is Caring!
- In partners, we had one person act out our interpretation of a gardener, and the other person was a sales person at a nursery.
- We practiced responding to one another, and enhancing our stories
- We also thought how students could further comprehend their characters while acting
- Thats all for now! Until the next Blog!
