Exercises which call into play the dramatic instinct are being used in many phases of school work, especially in the elementary grades.

Download or read book Dramatic Games and Dances written by Caroline Crawford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dramatic Games and Dances: For Little Children As long as the dance was a decadent art, it could not be expected that it would at first be given serious attention as an art-form. Education is, however, beginning to follow the trend of the creative thought of the present, and the interest in the three united arts, the dance, music, and literature will cause them to develop, educationally, through their proper channels and in their related forms. The earlier classifications of the dramatic games have been - the form or manner of playing, the subject of the game, and the kinds of exercise for the body. Just to imagine studying dramatic literature under such an assortment of topics reveals the situation in which we find ourselves, educationally, in attempting to reinstate these earlier arts. Under the third heading - exercise of the body, the prize would surely go to comic opera because there is so much motor activity in that form. In attempting to present this small collection of dramatic games and dances built on another classification and for another purpose, there are several important points to be noted before the art-forms of the little child will have much significance for us. So long as we judged the child's art-product by adult standards, we were inclined to say that the little child was artless. Not until we hunted out the beginnings of highly evolved activities did we realize that the child is an artist at an early period of life. His constructive tendencies lead him to build in forms which differ from the most complex arts, in degree only. When we study what actions he puts together to build his plots; how this plot is whole and complete out of his experience; how yesterday's plot may not satisfy him today, because a new fact must be added to the older group, even though all the relations have to be changed to do 'it, we find that he is not far away from what we call a technical study of plot making.

Download or read book Plays for Children written by Alice I. Hazeltine and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plays for Children: An Annotated Index The principal feature of the index is the list of plays by title, with references to other versions of the same stories. NO attempt has been made to refer from the titles of all the fables and fairy tales nor to indicate the source of all the stories, but under the titles of books may be found references to scenes from them which have been dramatized. In general, narrative form and poetry are not included when material alone is preserved, as, for example, in volumes intended for oral as well as for dramatic reading. The list includes, however, narratives where suggestions or helps for dramatization are given, as well as dialogues intended not for action, but for reading. Selections from Shakespeare, and plays in foreign languages have been omitted. The annotation is intended to give a clue to the identification of the story more necessary, perhaps, with the simpler tales in the dramatic readers, since the play titles are frequently unlike those of the fairy tales and fables from which they are adapted. Additional help in finding certain stories may be found in Mary Huse Eastman's Index to fairy tales, myths and legends, which indicates variants of the same story. Often a quotation from the text suggests the character of the play. The number of characters is indicated, but it should be remembered that parts may often be doubled, and the number of boys and girls may vary accordingly. It has not seemed practicable to indicate the age of the children to whom each play is suited. The title of the book, the title of the play, the character of the annotation, the story iself, and sometimes the quotation given, often suggest this. Sometimes adults are needed. Some of the plays are best suited to older children. But as this is not a list for High School use, the Drama League List of plays for High School and College production should be consulted. Where the time required for production is given it has been found in the play itself, in the Drama League List of plays for children or in Miss Mackay's How to produce children's plays.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stick-and-Pea Plays: Pastimes for the Children's Year What sort of play is the best sort of house-play for the child? If I could ask the mothers and fathers and teachers who think about such things, I should expect a reply somewhat like this: The best sort of house-play for the child is a play the child takes to naturally; a play the child can play largely by itself; a play that calls out the child's activities, trains the hand, educates the eye, exercises the judgment, stirs the imagination - and gives pleasure all the while; a play that yields something to take, to hold, to keep, to use; a play that leads readily to talks, and stories, and songs, with a beautiful lesson at the heart of them. Perhaps the first play-instinct of the child, when the little brain begins to think and the little hands to do, is in the making of mimic objects and the make-believe use of them. But the child is not merely imitative. The child is a Robinson Crusoe and a "Swiss Family Robinson" all in one. The child adapts the thing at hand to the need of the moment, to any end desired.
