Drama

An extended learning experience consisting of a series of dramatic activities based on a single topic. Features the both the students and teacher in role. The teacher-in-role strategy can help begin the drama by stimulating and engaging the group. In some ways it is like a lesson plan with multiple activities the leader chooses from as s/he sees the drama unfolding according to student input and interest. Structurally this technique resembles a play that develops scene by scene—but not necessarily in sequential order.
