Instead, she advocates for a more dynamic approach that incorporates elements of theater and performance into the curriculum.The book begins with an overview of the benefits of using drama in education, including increased creativity, improved communication skills, and enhanced critical thinking abilities. It then delves into practical strategies for implementing the dramatic method in the classroom, such as role-playing, improvisation, and script-writing. The author includes numerous examples and exercises to help teachers incorporate these techniques into their lessons.Throughout the book, Finlay-Johnson emphasizes the importance of creating a safe and supportive environment for students to explore their creativity and develop their skills. She also addresses common concerns and challenges that teachers may encounter when using the dramatic method, such as managing classroom behavior and assessing student performance.Overall, The Dramatic Method of Teaching is a valuable resource for educators looking to infuse their teaching with more creativity and engagement. Its timeless insights and practical advice make it a must-read for anyone interested in using drama to enhance the learning experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

A merica. Every page is imbued with the spirit of joy and Hfe, natural, spontaneous life, recognizing the fights of a child to his own point of view with his own limitations. Education is life, not just the preparation rlife. Some one has said that education is being at home in God sworld, and another educator gives the following beatitude :B lessed are they who do hunger and thirst after the knowledge of how to direct instead of suppress the spontaneous activities of childhood, seeking to transmute what is evil into good, for they shall make happy and competent and well-behaved children. The best teachers are those who lead their pupils into activities which, based upon the fundamental instincts of child nature, are to test and examine everything and to attempt all feats. Miss Finlay-J ohnson recognizes her pupils as little men and women who have a right to appropriate just that part of this world which belongs to childhood, and in her school the children live in a world of their own and look upon life through their own childish vision.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
