Drama with the Parachute: A teacher's guide. By Claire Miller-Brown. (PACE Theatre Company, 15, 0845 130 5218)
Reviewed by Miranda Walker, playwork trainer
The author recognises that many settings use parachutes solely for games.
If that's the case in your establishment, then this book will introduce you to new drama ideas for children aged from three to five years old.
Despite the title, the book is suitable for all practitioners. Links are provided to the Scottish Curriculum Framework, which are a bonus if you want to use them, but not a distraction if you don't. Suggestions for the structure of sessions are included and the benefits to children are clearly explained.
