Dramatic Science at Key Stage 1: Modelling Ideas within an Olympics Theme
McGregor, Deb; Precious, Wendy
Primary Science, n123 p10-13 May 2012
Dramatic Science is an approach to teaching science that purposely places the children in thought-provoking situations where they need to apply their scientific understanding to decide how to act. Teachers can then apply drama techniques to help children develop and communicate their ideas. In this article, the authors share how modelling through drama can engage and activate creative thinking, as well as scientific enquiry skills, in young children. (Contains 4 figures.)
