Uso dos jogos teatrais na sala de aula inclusiva

Abstract

This work is the result of a Literature Review addressing the theme of the use of theater games in the inclusive classroom, which is a current, necessary, and urgent topic. The main objective here is to discuss the possibility of Theater Games being an effective tool in the overall development of students in the inclusive classroom. The theme is approached based on the theories of arts educators Viola Spolin, through her work Theater Games in the Classroom - The Teacher's Book, and Olga Reverbel, from her experiences with Theater Games and global expression activities. The possibilities of using Theater Games, which explore both physical and intellectual perspectives, in the overall development of students with disabilities, global developmental disorders (GDD), high abilities/giftedness, including other students, were discussed. The theoretical unfolding is also sought through the addition of researchers who contributed to the improvement of art education in Brazil, focusing on this theme, making it clear that theater games are an important tool in the practice of the new classroom and effective for the overall development of students.
