At Arts and Letters United 305, a Pre-K to 8th-grade public school in the Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York, the students play theater games throughout the year in every grade. In addition to helping students develop social and emotional skills, make deeper connections to academic content, and exercise executive functions, theater games can also make great warm-up activities to get learners primed to dive into the curriculum. In teacher Katie Giordano’s 4th grade classroom, one of the students’ favorites is 3 Noses, an active math warm-up game they learned from Child’s Play NY (https://childsplayny.com/), an arts organization that helps schools integrate theater and improvisation as powerful tools for education.

For more theater games that support learning, check out the articles that Child’s Play NY founder Jocelyn Greene has written for Edutopia: https://www.edutopia.org/profile/jocelyn-greene/ or visit this channel: https://www.youtube.com/@childsplayinaction
