Drama encourages students to express themselves through acting, role-play, and storytelling. With inquiry learning, learners explore how characters, emotions, and situations come to life on stage. Instead of only memorizing lines, they experiment with voice, movement, and improvisation to discover new ways of communication. Drama activities promote creativity, teamwork, and confidence, while also helping students understand different perspectives. By exploring scenes, creating plays, and reflecting on performances, students learn to connect art with real-world experiences. In this way, Drama becomes more than entertainment—it becomes a tool for growth, empathy, and imagination.
