Using Drama for Humanities

Course date: 23rd Nov 2022

This course consists of 2 sessions, the first is Using Drama for Learning to teach History and the second is Using Drama to Explore Global Issues.

£210.00 + VAT (20%)
Target Group: KS2 teachers, TAs
Session 1 Drama can be used to help a class to actively engage with historical characters, situations, images, texts, diaries and other documents, in memorable ways. This course will offer ways to approach the teaching of history through drama, before taking teachers ‘step by step’ through at least one ‘History Through Drama’ unit (depending on the session time available), e.g. The Great Fire of London, Florence Nightingale, The Discovery of Tutankhamun’s Tomb, Evacuees. Respect for historical evidence will be maintained throughout the drama, whilst raising children’s awareness that history can be re-told in different ways, from different viewpoints and for various purposes. Session 2 This session will help teachers to use story-drama, to enter a shared, imagined world with their class, within which they can safely explore together, real issues of global significance, e.g. migration, pandemics, war, climate change, etc. Examples of good practice will be offered that link to current UNESCO aims. At least one drama lesson (depending on the session time available), will be presented, a step at a time. Ways in which drama strategies can be used to communicate and share the children’s thinking and learning, will be considered.

In everything she does, she walks delegates through the materials, and discusses the impact this has on children’s learning. She uses drama conventions to create opportunities for pupils to secure their learning in new and deeper ways.’      Mary Myatt
