Bloom's Taxonomy and elements of movement

Bloom's taxonomy is salient within the teaching world and in this post, I would like to discuss how this theory can be put into practice through the use of drama! Bloom's taxonomy includes key words in describing the cognitive processes of which thinkers encounter and work with knowledge. Each part of Bloom's taxonomy can be further broken down into descriptive words you may provide to students to help them through cognitive processes:

 In our own drama class, we incorporated this theory with drama's elements of movement.Through this, students are able to remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate, create and re-create. This can be especially helpful when looking at books or exploring a specific concept in science or social studies. An idea could be to invite students to move according to how they feel (while keeping some restraints on how far/suddenly they move to avoid injury) while reading a novel, listening to a certain music piece, or to re-create pieces of a story or information regarding science or social studies. In science, you may ask students to move around the room or act as though they are solid or liquid to demonstrate the different properties of each. The students are experiencing the properties of liquids and solids themselves by trying to re-create them through movement.

Those are some ideas of how Bloom's Taxonomy may be integrated with the elements of movement to incorporate drama with various subjects. I shared a few examples, feel free to share yours too!
