The Drama Elements Posters can be printed for display across your classroom – whether that is on a bulletin board or in the hallway. If you are a drama teacher, you may choose to have these displayed year-round. If you are not a drama teacher, you may choose to have these displayed if you are beginning a drama unit. There are also student notebook pages that are available that will give students a closer glimpse of the terms they have learned. Choose a complete, cloze or blank-definition notebook page to match the lesson and student needs.
I hope you enjoy!

Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Define at least 10 of the 16 drama vocabulary terms (e.g., protagonist, antagonist, dialogue, stage directions).
Distinguish between related terms such as scenes vs. acts, or set vs. setting.
Complete a fill-in-the-blank definition using the correct drama vocabulary word.
Teaching tips
Use the full-definition posters for initial instruction, then switch to the fill-in-the-blank version as a review activity.
Post the colour version if wall space allows; use the black-and-white cards printed on coloured paper as a budget alternative.
Have students cut out and glue the smaller term cards into the included notebook pages to build a take-home glossary.
Skills covered
Drama terminology recall -- students learn definitions for 16 theater vocabulary terms such as protagonist, antagonist, and stage directions.
Cloze note-taking -- the fill-in-the-blank poster version has students complete missing words in each definition (e.g., 'The main character in the play. Usually the ___ guy.').
Classroom glossary assembly -- students cut out individual term cards and glue them into the included notebook pages to build a personal drama glossary.
