Process Drama

I really enjoyed the reading and class discussion on process drama. I think that it is really interesting how students can connect something that they are reading not only to themselves, but to other texts. I also think that by taking on the role of a character's feelings and personality, they learn how others feel, which is so important not only in teaching literacy, but in all aspects of life. It was cool to see that in the article, it talked about my diary from here to there, which was the text I based my first lesson plan off of. It's good to know that I thought about teaching emotions of characters in a text before actually reading this article :)
