Dramatized Experiences

All dramatization is essentially a process of communication, in which both participant and spectators are engaged. A creative

interaction takes place, a sharing of ideas

- Edgar Dale

Dramatized Experiences

If our teaching is dramatic, we can catch the attention and the heart of the learner. They become affected and will leave an

impact to them.

Plays

depict life, character, or culture or a combination of all three.

Pageants

Pageants are usually community dramas that are based on local history, presented by local actors.

Tableau

A tableau (a French word which means picture) is a picture- like scene composed of people against a background.

Pantomime

A pantomime is the “art of conveying a story through bodily movements only”. Its effect on the audience depends on the

movements of the actors.

Types of Puppet

Shadow Puppets

flat black silhouette made from lightweight cardboard and shown behind a screen.

Rod Puppets

Flat cut out figures tacked to a stick, with one or more movable parts, and operated from below the stage level by wire rods or

slender sticks

Hand Puppets

The puppets head is operated by the forefinger of the puppeteer, the little finger and thumb being used to animate the puppet

hands.

Glove-and-Finger Puppets

Make use of old gloves to which small costumed figure are attached

Marionettes

Flexible, jointed puppets operated by strings or wires attached to a cross bar and maneuvered from directly above the stage

Principles must be observed in choosing a puppet play for teaching

• Do not use puppets for plays that can be done just as well or better by other dramatic means.

• Puppet plays must be based on action rather than on words.• Keep the plays short.• Do not omit the possibilities of music and dancing as part of

the puppet show.• Adapt the puppet show to the stage, background, and tastes of

the students.

Role-playing

Is an unrehearsed, unprepared and spontaneous dramatization of a “let’s pretend” situation where assigned participants are

absorbed by their own roles in the situation described by the teachers.

How is role-playing done?

It can be done by describing a situation which would create different viewpoints on an issue and then asking the students

to play the roles of the individual involved.
