Nick Mavroudis

Abstract


This article aims to fill the bibliographic gap concerning the way physical education teachers may apply drama in education in elementary schools. Drama in education is an educational method which, based on movement, speech and expression, aims at the comprehensive development of a child. The application of its techniques may provide new dimensions and perspectives to the teaching of physical education in elementary school.
