This document provides information on different types of dramatic techniques that can be used in the classroom, including plays, pageants, tableaus, pantomime, puppets, and role-playing. It describes each technique and provides examples. Plays depict life, character, and culture and offer opportunities to portray important ideas about life. Pageants are usually community dramas based on local history. Pantomime and tableaus are purely visual experiences that require less time and preparation than plays. Puppets can present ideas with simplicity without elaborate costumes or scenery. Role-playing involves spontaneous dramatization of pretend situations.
