Drama in Social Studies is a really interesting idea. I think it could really work to help students have a greater understanding of Canadian History.
This article gives you the steps required to have students create a skit and then present it to the class. This process is cross curricular allowing you to incorporate language/dram with history. Students will become responsible for their own learning by having to study the topic in depth and then distilling that information into a historically accurate text.
Drama will help bring history to life for students and it will give those creative and kinesthetic learners an opportunity to express their learning styles in history.
