Multilingual Science Theater Example

Equity

Embodied dramatizing pushes back on the Western body-mind split, and on classroom management practices that emphasize the policing and control of students’ bodies–particularly Black and Brown bodies
Science theater disrupts the division between the sciences and the arts, allowing a connection to “arts-based ways of knowing that align with Indigenous pedagogies that celebrate holistic ways of experiencing the world instead of privileging disembodied explanations of reality”
Embodied performance can be multimodal, playful, and joyful
Science theater can be multilingual, embrace translanguaging, and create space for students to articulate science concepts in their own words
