Drama Games Module 2: The Games
How Module 2 works
This module has been broken into four (4) units. Each Unit deals with a range of games that are suitable for different situations and curricular needs. Each unit has it's own learning activities and reflections attached, please complete these as you go. The order in which the Units are presented is for me the most organic, however, feel free to progress through the Units in any order that you choose. Be sure to complete each reflection as you complete each activity, though, so that the relevant information is fresh in you mind. Without further ado...

Sources of information disclosure
Unless otherwise stated, all of the games in these Units were developed by me, Luke Fellows, over ten years of drama teaching experience and even longer as a drama student. You will find many iterations and variations of these games in as many drama games books and drama websites. I honestly cannot vouch for their origin but these are my versions of the games that were passed on to me or modified from my drama own teachers. If a game is described verbatim from a text the source is cited.
