OVERVIEW
All dramatization is essentially a process of communication, in which both participant and spectators are
engaged. A creative interaction takes place, a sharing of ideas.
-Edgar Dale

ABSTRACTION
Something dramatic is something that is stirring or affecting or moving. A dramatic entrance is something that
catches and holds our attention and has an emotional impact. If our teaching is dramatic, our students get attracted, interested
and affected. If they are affected and moved by what we taught, we will most likely leave an impact on them. So, why can't
we be dramatic all the time?
Dramatized experiences can range from the formal plays, pageants to less formal tableau, pantomime, puppets
and role-playing.
Plays depict life, character, or culture or combination of all three. They offer excellent opportunities to portray
vividly important ideas about life. Pageants are usually community dramas that are based on local history, presented by
local actors. An example i9s a historical pageant that traces the growth of a school. Play and pantomime require much time
for preparation and so cannot be part of everyday classroom program.
Pantomime and tableaux, when compared to a play and a pageant, are less demanding in terms of labor, time and

preparation. These are purely visual experiences. A pantomime is the "art of conveying a story through bodily movements
only" (Webster's New College Dictionary). Its effect on the audience depends on the movements of the actors. A tableau
(a French word which means picture) is a picture-like scene composed of people against a background. A tableau is often
used to celebrate Independence Day, Christmas, and United Nations Day.
Dale (1996) claims that puppets, unlike the regular stage play, can present ideas with extreme simplicity - witjout
elaborate scenery or costume yet effectively.
As an instructional device, the puppet show can involve the entire group of students - as speakers of parts,
manipulators of figures, and makers of the puppets.
Types of Puppet
Puppets come in different kinds. These are the most common:
Shadow puppets- flat black silhouette made from lightweight cardboard and shown behind a screen.
Rod puppets - flat cut out figures tacked to a stick, with one or more movable parts, and operated from below the
stage level by wire rods or slender sticks.
Hand puppets - the puppet's head is operated by the forefinger of the puppeteer, the little finger and thumb being
used to animate the puppet hands.
Glove-and-fingerpuppets - make use of old gloves to which small costumed figure are attached.
Marionettes - flexible, jointed puppets operated by strings or wires attached to a cross bar and maneuvered from
directly above the stage.
Dramatic experiences cater to students’ multiple intelligences. Plays, pageants, pantomimes, tableaus, puppets and
role-playing are obviously most fit for the kinesthetically intelligent. When pantomimes, tableaus and puppets accompanied
by music, musical intelligence is at work. These dramatic experiences cannot be implemented by individuals alone. You’ve
got to have a team to come up with a play, a pageant, a tableaus, a pantomime, a puppet show and role playing. The
interpersonally intelligent students will have no difficulty relating and working with people as they plan and implement any
of these dramatic experiences.
