Theatre as a Teaching Resource to Work on Socio-environmental Problems in Primary Education
Year: 2020
Type: article
Abstract: The objective of this article is to make an approach to how primary education teachers understand that theatre favours the treatment of socio-environmental problems in the classroom in a motivating and practical way. Semi-structured interviews have been carried out with teachers who have already used theatre in their classrooms. The results have been structured on the basis of three categories: motivation and values, context and subjects, and difficulties. The potential of theatre in primary school is highlighted, with time and the number of students in the groups being the main difficulties in incorporating them into the classroom.
