Abstract:

This research examines integrated drama curriculum for first-grade students taught by a drama specialist and a first-grade classroom teacher during a 6-week drama program at a private school in the Midwestern United States. Specifically, how drama is integrated with math, what unique knowledge and content of drama are delivered, and what roles drama serves in an integrated program are explored through a qualitative case study. During the drama sessions students’ kinesthetic exploration and representation, re-creation of the storyI, and on-stage performance enabled them to reinforce math learning as well as experience art forms of drama. Adopting their learning of basic knowledge and skills of drama performance, the students used their body for communication and elaboration of their ideas with creativity. Based on the findings, important contributions to a successful integration are suggested.
