Reflection #2-Drama

I think that drama is a good thing to incorporate into the classroom. Especially when it's a boring subject... drama will help bring that lesson to life and make the students want to learn more about it so that they can participate in whatever activity you have planned. When I first start teaching, I think that i'll use skits most often; the students will have to know the information and then present their skit to the class... That will get them up and moving around and they'll really have to research and pay attention in class so that they can put on their skits. They may also tell a story about a person that we are learning about, they may put it into their own words and present it to the class. Drama can be used in many different ways and I'll mainly use it when I'm teaching a boring subject so that I can keep my students engaged and interested in whatever subject it may be.
