Drama+for+Mathematics

Another fantastic idea, that could be used in your classroom is adding Drama classes to act out a mathematics topic. Dr. Kay provided us with information regarding the use of Drama for mathematics, although it is for primary level of grades 4-6. Attached is this document.



However, while attending one of our booster days/workshops our section experienced bringing a drama class into one's teachables. Here we took an initial concept and acted out the scenario with 4 members in our group. In these groups we addressed topics such as pythagorean theorem, and converse triangles. The possibilities could be endless.



Additional ideas for incorporating Drama into Mathematics. Below is a notebook document which has ideas that you can fiddle with and apply a mathematics twist on the drama activity. In order to make it relevant to the current strand you are teaching!
