LEARNING THROUGH DRAMATIC PLAY<br />

RELEVANT LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT<br />

Language development runs through all dramatic play activities. Talking and listening skills<br />

developed through dramatic play form the narratives which are the basis of reading and writing.<br />

Opportunities to develop reading and writing occur within meaningful contexts in a role play<br />

area.<br />

In role play situations children can experiment with the<br />

language they have acquired as well as new vocabulary<br />

they are introduced to in school.<br />

Specific vocabulary and use of language is dependent on<br />

the type of imaginative play offered to the children.<br />
