Educational Value

Our Drama Kids developmental drama classes and unique teaching methods help all children, from the shy to the outgoing, discover their full potential. Drama Kids develops all kids and teaches them skills they will use throughout their lives to become confident and creative thinkers. Our fully-trained and qualified Developmental Drama instructors are eager to provide weekly programming that helps develop every student’s communication skills, physical education, language arts, literacy, and self-confidence. Significantly, our developmental drama program design is research-based with a sequential curriculum that aligns to Common Standards in English Language Arts, in Physical Education, and in Theater. All drama activities encourage students to build their foundational reading skills, including identifying key details in a story, re-telling stories, and building vocabulary. Students strengthen their oral communication, grammar, poise, and articulation. Further, our goals to develop every child’s literacy and communication skills, creative thinking, and confidence are met by offering arts activities that directly impact academic benefits; the link between arts engagement and student success has been thoroughly proven. Drama Kids classes feature new lesson plans, scenes, and activities each week. Each class features many different components, including whole class plays, speech, scene starters, and small group improvisations. Each class meets once weekly for one hour after school or in the evenings. Our programs can be found in schools and various community center locations. We offer the opportunity to perform in musicals as well as plays and since we are not community theater EVERYONE gets a part no auditions required.
