Social Constructionism
Social Constructionism is another important theory that can relate to how children interpret drama. This belief allows individuals to define their social construction of reality. This means that people will use their background assumptions and life experiences to define what is real for them. Thus, our behaviours depend on the way that we define reality. The social construction of reality is not limited to small segments of our social interactions with others. Instead, it is an essential part of our everyday lives. The drama activities are all examples of the social constructionism theory. Students were able to socially construct their reality through their actions. The students will act out a certain action, scene, role play, etc, depending on how they construct meaning from it.
