TEACHER RESOURCES
DRAMA ACTIVITIES CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES The drama activities in this pack are designed to give teachers ideas and strategies for work in the classroom through which to explore the characters, themes and setting of the play before and after a visit. They extend the imaginative reach of the play and allow children to give shape to their own thoughts, feelings and understanding in drama form. Our teacher resources and CPD support teachers in embedding drama in their curriculum planning. Working through drama allows children to explore things that matter to them within a fictional context, draw on their prior knowledge and apply it to new situations, develop language as they give expression to new understandings and develop emotional intelligence and critical thinking as they explore things from multiple perspectives. Attending the accompanying teacher CPD day at the Unicorn on Friday 4th February 2021 will be a useful opportunity to work out how the sequences work in practice and to experience how each activity relates to and informs the next.
