| Children’s Theatre or Theatre For Young Audience can involve children in actual productions, plays and musicals aimed explicitly for children, or a mixture of both. The study aims to look at the combination of children’s theatre and creative movement that results in boosting pre-school children’s self -confidence and its ability to aid in their holistic development. The study was conducted in a nursery to expose theatre as a medium to express feelings, emotions and behaviors amongst children. Theatre as a medium of learning is also expected to be a place for children to showcase existing talent and help the child to boost their self- confidence. This study focused on a qualitative methodology applying Bloom's Taxonomy of the cognitive domain approach that involves knowledge, understanding and application. The study was conducted on seven children in Taska Sayang Sentosa di Bukit Beruntung, Selangor based on the Kurikulum Standard Prasekolah Kebangsaan (Malaysian National Standrad Pre- School Curriculum) 2017 under the subtopic K.E 2.1.1 Melakonkan watak menggunakan imiginasi (acting out characters based on imagination).The respondents were randomly selected amongst the seven children after obtaining permission from the parents and activities were planned and conducted jointly by the researchers and the teachers. The research shows that the implementation of children's theater can induce fun in learning as well as shape the personality of the child. |
