Abstract

This paper illustrates how integral drama-based pedagogy can be effective in two areas of learning for primary aged children, namely in language development and moral thinking. The activities that demonstrate how the theory can be put into practice are based upon a picture book and show how storytelling and aesthetic playfulness lie at the heart of the process. I argue that the processes used in the pedagogy as much as the content of the lesson itself contribute to children’s ethical cultivation, while the story around which the activities are framed draw out from children vocabulary that builds upon and extends what they intrinsically know about how humans ought to treat one another. Each of the activities is thoroughly described so that teachers who are unused to the demands of this pedagogy can see exactly how it can be managed and made to work in the classroom.
