Drama, Narrative and Moral Education by Joe Winston

Teachers are expected to take responsibility for children's moral development, particularly in the primary years, but how best to go about approaching the issues? In this book, the author explores a classroom approach that uses both drama and narrative stories to explore moral issues: drama gives children an opportunity to work through moral problems, make decisions and take up moral positions; stories offer a resource for moral education whereby children can learn through the 'experiences' of those in the story. Through providing a number of case studies, the author shows how this may be done by practitioners in the lassroom.

At the University of Warwick, Joe Winston is a Professor of Theatre and Arts Education. He had taught theatre and French at the elementary and secondary levels. Starting Drama 4-11 (Fulton, 2008), Drama and English at the Heart of the Primary Curriculum (Fulton, 2004), and Drama, Literacy, and Moral Education (Fulton, 2000) are among his prior works.
