First Grade Drama Objectives
Drama Objectives Alignment to National Standards
These objectives cover essential learning in the art form for five- to seven-year-old students. This first PDF download above contains objectives used in our First Grade Curriculum (also listed below) in a handy printout for reference. We have aligned the objectives with the United States National Standards as shown in the second PDF.
Additionally, we have mapped the National Core Arts Standards to grade-appropriate theater standards in a handy reference document for each grade level. Use this reference if you are customizing your curriculum.
