As Fred Rogers said, “Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning.”
This highly interactive workshop equips educators with practical, classroom-ready strategies for integrating drama into everyday learning. Through hands-on activities—including storytelling, puppetry, improvisation, and theatre games—participants will explore how the performing arts strengthen comprehension, emergent literacy, and social-emotional development. Educators will actively engage in creative play to develop techniques that foster focus, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking. The session connects drama-based learning directly to curriculum outcomes, offering adaptable lesson applications that make learning dynamic and inclusive. Participants will leave with concrete tools to help students express ideas confidently, expand language skills, and deepen understanding across subject areas. No prior theatre experience is required—only a willingness to play, explore, and rediscover the power of imagination in education.
