Drama provides a powerful teaching tool for children to internalise and comprehend deeply what they learn more broadly at school. In Waldorf schools, lesson-informed drama makes up an integral part of the curriculum. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the history of theatre used in teaching for the enrichment of lessons and the health of a class. From his long and rich experience, Arthur Pittis offers a well-written and comprehensive description of how plays can be chosen, cast, costumed, staged, rehearsed and performed in any class. With thorough referencing and careful attention to possible pitfalls, he demonstrates how to enjoy drama as a teaching lynch pin. The book includes original and adaptable plays for a range of levels as well as resources for finding further appropriate plays which will enliven a joy of learning in school.
