- exploring how drama is used within their own communities to maintain, continue and revitalise culture
- identifying and discussing use of elements of drama such as space, time, language, movement, character and/or relationships in the drama; for example, using Viewpoints to develop questions such as, “What did you see in the drama?”, “How did the actors make the characters believable?”, “When was the drama set? (For example, time, place or other context)”, “What was the purpose of the drama?”
- exploring drama from other places and times, and discussing how it might contribute to their own drama, and how cultural understandings shape meaning in drama; for example, exploring how drama is used to share cultural knowledge in celebrations, ceremonies or rituals that happen in their local community and/or in another place, such as a country or region in Asia
