SUBJECT INTEGRATION

In the Creative Classroom Management Plan, the integration of theater arts and subject integration is a special way of making learning both fun and effective. Imagine your classroom turning into a stage, where you get to use acting, games, and exercises to learn about different subjects like math, science, or history.

Theater arts techniques involve using drama, storytelling, and creative activities to help you understand and remember things better. Instead of just reading from a textbook or listening to a lecture, you might act out a scene, play educational games, or participate in exercises that bring the subject to life.

This modality in the Creative Classroom Management Plan emphasizes using the excitement of theater arts to introduce, teach, and reinforce what you're learning in your regular subjects. It's like turning your lessons into a performance, making it easier for you to engage with the material and enjoy the learning process. So, not only do you get to have fun in class, but you also remember and understand the subjects better through the creative power of theater arts.
