Produktbeschreibung
Drama Therapy and Storymaking in Special Education is a practical resource book for professionals, that covers the broad spectrum of students attending special needs schools, including those with attention deficit disorder, autism and Asperger's syndrome, and students with multiple disabilities. Paula Crimmens places methods of using therapeutic storymaking with this client group within the context of drama therapy. She offers practical advice on how to structure and set up sessions compatible with the special needs learning environment and describes how story sessions can address issues of self-esteem and self-mastery. The group nature of the approach advocated by the author proves an invaluable tool for building social and communication skills.
