Into the book
What makes theatrical play different from other categories of play is that it is based on the medium of ‘play’.
However, the important point is that the theater we are talking about here is the 'theater in everyday life' that creates and feels 'difference', and theatrical play is experiencing this theater in everyday life in the form of play.
--- p.19

Regularly performing drama throughout the year can significantly develop students' social skills, communication skills, and theatricality based on creativity, while providing them with a variety of experiences.

Middle and high school students often experience emotional difficulties due to academic stress and peer relationships, and using spare time to engage in dramatic play can help alleviate these problems.
You can express your inner emotions and concerns through improvisation, playfully relieve the frustrations you feel in everyday life by reflecting them in drama, or explore healthy solutions together.
--- p.24

Because play is based on cooperation and communication, if it is done consistently, the relationships between participants will noticeably improve.
In particular, in activities such as role-playing or improvisation, participants naturally rely on and cooperate with each other.
--- p.25

Dramatic play is also suitable for developing participants' creative thinking skills, as it often encourages them to think of various solutions under limited conditions or given situations.
--- p.26

While it is important for individuals to let their imagination run wild, for a more meaningful play to occur, participants must exchange ideas and actively accept each other's ideas.
This applies both when you are playing yourself and when you are observing the expressions of other participants outside of the game.
--- p.30

In fact, the real reason why theater activities are burdensome is probably because you worry that it will be too noisy.
If you think about why students are so noisy, the answer is simple.
Because it's fun and exciting.
--- p.33

Publisher's Review
Anyone can do theater without any burden?

When we say 'theater', a performance on stage comes to mind.
The theater discussed in 『100 Plays of Theater』 has a broader scope.
Any act of creating a fictional world and freely imagining and creating within it is a theatrical activity.
Authors who have long communicated with children through theater say that because educational theater is not an activity that seeks fixed answers, it can create a much freer and more permissive atmosphere than other learning activities.
Since one person is chosen as a representative and the roles of actor and audience are not fixed, children do not feel pressured to express themselves.
Then, the children will naturally take the lead in the class, and the idea of ​​'creating the class together with the teacher' will foster their confidence and proactive learning attitude.
So, both teachers and parents should approach the play with the mindset that it will be comfortable and enjoyable.
With 『100 Plays in Theater』, you will soon be able to create a classroom where children can laugh, chat, and grow together.

What makes theatrical play different?

With so many other creative activities out there, why bother trying the unfamiliar art of drama? It's because it offers children a complex experience.
What makes drama play different from other classroom plays is that it uses ‘play’ as a medium.
Children create their own imaginary worlds that are different from reality and intentionally become unfamiliar with it.
Although it is a small setting, the moment you intentionally create something 'different', your imagination and spontaneous execution skills that are difficult to try in regular classroom play are noticeably developed.
In reality, children rarely speak loudly, speak fluently, or dance in front of others.
It's because I'm embarrassed, and I'm worried that I'll look like I'm showing off.
However, the moment children are given a specific role in the imaginary world, they no longer become their 'real selves' but 'roles in play', where they can freely express themselves and relieve stress.
Such complex experiences can be effectively provided through dramatic play, fostering the development of children's diverse abilities while providing psychological stability, laying the foundation for a positive impact on their daily lives and academics.

Structure divided into four categories according to developmental stage

『100 Plays』divides 100 plays into 4 categories and selects 25 plays from each.
The four categories are sensory, embodiment, projection, and role play, and progress from simple sensory play to complex role play according to the child's developmental stage.
‘Sensory’ play is a play that uses the five senses to experience new sensations about one’s own body.
This includes playing with everyday objects by touching them with your feet or covering your eyes to focus only on hearing.
‘Embodiment’ play is play that actively utilizes body movements.
This includes games where people dance along to someone or join forces to express a specific word or object.
Projection play is a play in which one projects one's interests, thoughts, etc. onto another object.
This includes games where players guess what emotion the other person is expressing or guess what imaginary object they are holding.
Role-playing is a form of play that allows us to understand and empathize with others and the world around us by acting out various characters.
This game involves telling someone else's story as if it were your own, or using your imagination to weave together scenes that are out of order into a single story.
Dividing play activities based on developmental stages lowers the psychological barrier to entry for children who are not accustomed to playing together, and systematically helps foster creativity.

100 games to choose from, depending on the situation and purpose.

When introducing each game, the approximate time required is provided, and the appropriate age group for the game is divided into toddlers, elementary school (lower grades), elementary school (upper grades), and teenagers, and is indicated with a star rating.
The higher the rating, the more suitable it is for that age group and activities.
With this in mind, I can choose and use the type of drama play that is necessary for my current classroom situation.
If it's the beginning of the semester, light physical contact games that encourage children to bond with each other would be appropriate, and if it's after-school time, you can choose games that take about 10 minutes to stimulate children's imaginations in a short amount of time.
The author briefly explains how to use educational drama in the introduction. Dramatic plays such as 'expressing emotions' and 'expressing specific words with the body' can be used as learning activities in Korean and English classes.
The 100 theatrical plays introduced here are not simply plays; they offer diverse educational possibilities in that they can be selected and adapted for different ages, purposes, and situations.

Real-life play videos, cute illustrations, helpful resources, and various tips to enrich your play!

"100 Plays in Theater" contains practical and intuitive content that you can find and follow right away when you need it.

However, for readers who are curious about the actual play scene, a QR code linking to a YouTube video has been included.
Depending on the play, appropriate activity materials may be required, and QR codes are included so that you can download them without having to search or create them repeatedly.
At the bottom of each game introduction, we've added useful tips to enrich the game, including rules you must follow when playing, tips to prevent cheating, and what conditions need to be changed to make the game more advanced.
