Theatre Arts Lessons
"Studies find that students participating in drama and/or drama integration programs are more expressive and elaborate in their storytelling and use more complex language compared with other children. One study, for example, found that students were more confident in speaking and using complex language after participating in a drama program." (Brouillette & Jennings, 2010)
