Academic Life II


Hello guys!
In this post, we are going to continue talking about our School Experience and the informal education.
Throughout our stage in Primary Education, we have represented theatres of different issues, some to give off the course, others to represent situations of our daily life, and we did some of them in English classes to improve our foreign language skills. Until  we have investigated, we haven´t realized the amount benefits that it produces for children. It is a very useful tool for expressing their feelings, a simple way to acquire knowledge learning, using a playful and enjoyable process. Furthermore, thanks to all type of theatres, children will develop and improve their body language.
This type of activity is closely related to the previous post, as children learn and they acquire   knowledge and skills in a dynamic and innovative way, based on their own experience.
Puppets, stories or theatres are methods of expression which favour the physical, mental and intellectual development of the children, and it provokes that children could acquire a wide vocabulary, and develop their body and oral expression. Music is a very important element in the representation of puppets; usually each character is associated with a “leitmotiv” that it helps children to follow the course of history. (Prieto, 1981)
Theatres stimulate children's creativity. They become the main actors when puppets interact with them. Children are an important part in what’s happening in the story. To sum up, when children are spectators of this kind of representations, they also learn different knowledges like academic, moral values… For this reason it is so important telling stories with moral messages to children in Primary School in order to improve their behaviour and avoid serious conflicts in the school environment which can produce bullying.
We hope, you will like our post.
