Arts Alive! Getting Started with Drama Integration: Part 1
Karen Erickson, Workshop Leader
For Teachers of Grades 1-8

This workshop provides training for teachers new to the art form or experienced teachers who are looking for alternative ways to deliver drama. Through simple movement activities and enacted story, participants learn to effectively set introductory management structures, build collaborative classroom communities, and introduce the tools of drama - body, mind, and voice. Story elements, the skills of self-management, imagination, and concentration, are also explored. Drama is a powerful tool for learning and experiencing literature, history, science, and human interaction.

Teachers who sign up to be in the Arts Alive Teacher Focus Group will be eligible to receive a FREE classroom residency opportunity with Karen Erickson. Call 937-328-7951 to find out more!
