PGCE History at UEA - Drama and Role-play - Welcome. Drama is often seen by student teachers as one of the riskiest classroom strategies.
Unless well-managed, drama can quickly become noisy, chaotic and difficult to control. And yet, ask pupils at the end of the school year what they enjoyed most or (more significantly) what history they best remembered, and the chances are that your risk-taking role-play is top of the list. In this section we exploit the potential of digital video and YouTube to view some examples of role-play conducted by students at the International School of Toulouse and British International School of Bratislava.
For me empathy is the most important historical skill. Trying to understand why people in the past thought and acted the way that they did is crucial if we are to explain why events happened. The following examples include the full secondary age-range and all abilities. Site Search / Top Activities. Simulation Activities. This page describes the technique and the uses of the simulation model and then lists all the activities that are based on this simulation model.
Go to List of Activities Simulation or Role Play? How does a simulation differ from a role-play? My pragmatic distinction is that a role-play involves students in decision-making while place din historical situations simulations lack that decision-taking element. Simulations tend to be directed entirely by the teacher acting as narrator with students acting out parts and answering questions but not being faced by a series of options and making choices.

Cuban Missiles Crisis 1962. 14 Oct: U2 spy-plane takes pictures of Missile bases in Cuba - experts tell Kennedy he has 10 days before they are operational. 16 Oct: Kennedy set up a Committee of the National Security Council to advise him. 22 Oct: Kennedy announced that he was mounting a naval blockade of Cuba.
B52 nuclear bombers were deployed, so that one-eighth of them were airborne all the time. That night, Oleg Penkovsky – a Western spy working in Russia – was arrested. His last message read; ‘Soviet attack imminent’. 23 Oct: Khrushchev explained that the missile sites were ‘solely to defend Cuba against the attack of an aggressor’. 20 Russian ships were heading for Cuba. 24 Oct: 25 Oct: The first Russian ship reached the naval blockade. 26 Oct: 27 Oct: Before Kennedy could reply, Khrushchev sent another letter, demanding that Kennedy also dismantle American missile bases in Turkey.
It looked as if war was about to happen. Kennedy ignored the plane incident.
