These eight downloadable posters have been designed to support the learning of Drama in primary and secondary classrooms. Drama is learned through developing skills and knowledge associated with the elements of drama (role, character, relationships, focus, tension, voice, movement, situation, space, time). These posters make visible the basic concepts and vocabulary associated with these elements.

Teachers and schools are encouraged to download, print and display either the primary or secondary versions of these A3 posters.
