Theatre-in-Education Resource Book

Theatre-in-Education Resource BookThis Theatre-in-Education Resource Book has been designed to support teachers and other professionals in preparing for and following up visits by Theatre-in-Education (TIE) Companies performing on the subject of road safety. It is intended that the resource will facilitate the incorporation of road safety as an important element in schemes of work, with a range of learning activities. This will enhance the impact of the production and avoid the possibility of regarding the visit as a one-off event, with the resultant loss of valuable teaching and learning opportunities.

The suggested activities have been designed to allow and promote an exploratory approach to road safety. Children must, of course, be taught the principles and rules of keeping safe whilst out and about, but it is only in the correct application of this knowledge in real life or, where that is not possible or practicable, approximate situations that true learning can be assessed.

Children are encouraged to use their existing knowledge and skills whilst actively engaged in real or simulated road safety tasks. A multi-sensory approach is used in recognition of variations in age, ability, and learning style.

The resource is linked to the National Curriculum for England and can be related to a wide range of other educational curricula.
