The Speaking, Learning BodyThe Speaking, Learning Body
“Language learning through drama as supported by
the drama, brain and language research reviewed
here can no longer be ignored. Drama involves the
whole body and the whole brain in learning in a
fictional context; it engages all of the multiple
intelligences (Gardner, 1985) and matches the
learning styles (Kolb, 1983) of all children.
Enjoyable physical movement embeds the
emotional impact of multi-sensory experiences on
the cells of the body to form deep neuronal
patterns in the brain and thereby enable memory
and recall more readily than methods having lesser
sensory impact” Wilkinson 2000

  • 39. The Speaking, Learning BodyThe Speaking, Learning Body “Language learning through drama as supported by the drama, brain and language research reviewed here can no longer be ignored. Drama involves the whole body and the whole brain in learning in a fictional context; it engages all of the multiple intelligences (Gardner, 1985) and matches the learning styles (Kolb, 1983) of all children. Enjoyable physical movement embeds the emotional impact of multi-sensory experiences on the cells of the body to form deep neuronal patterns in the brain and thereby enable memory and recall more readily than methods having lesser sensory impact” Wilkinson 2000
