Drama Rationale and Curriculum Guide

    As part of my Masters Degree from Lesley University, completed in summer 2011, my Thesis focused on: the value and purpose of Drama education for middle school-high school students. Included in the Thesis is a Curriculum Guide, outlining unit plans that support this rationale. As an educator, this Thesis and Curriculum guide are "living documents" that are able to evolve and change to meet the ever-changing needs of our students. 
    Feel free to read the rationale and curriculum via the web link below.  For your convenience, all are PDF documents for easy viewing. The copyright information is also included if you wish to cite or use elements of the Rationale or Curriculum for your teaching. My hope is for this curriculum to be useful for fellow educators, parents, and the community.


There are three documents to view via the web link:
  • Cover pages (including Table of Contents)
  • A Rationale for Drama education for middle-school and high school students
  • A Drama Curriculum Guide for grades 5-12.
