Drama is more than a subject, it is another way of learning. It can incorporate movement, spoken and written language, decision making, problem solving, interacting with others and much more. So it makes sense to use Drama in a variety of ways and areas, to help students develop ideas and make sense of their learning.
​
The units and resources on this site have been developed and modified my me and with others. Try something out, make it fit your students and you. Share your experiences and ideas so they can be passed on.

Plenty of room for variation.
