Authors : Marouf Nawel .

Abstract

The present research paper aims at investigating the impact of school theatre and its role in developing the child’s linguistic abilites. We are notably intersted in highlighting the importance of this literary genre in the context of language learning for children. Despite of its obvious dynamic nature(Audet and Mercier,2004), theatre is neglected as a valuable tool that should be used in developing children linguistic abilities either to acquire their mother tongues(L1) or in learning other foreign languages. This paper tends to shed light on how theatre can help children to enhance their four language skills namely, listening, speaking, reading, and writing
