Welcome to my curated Performing Arts Portfolio. This collection of resources was created to promote inclusive, multicultural, and multilingual learning in the early years. It involves drama, music, dance, and movement activities that promote variety and creativity. I chose these materials because they promote happy, meaningful play-based learning and allow me to connect with children from all backgrounds. The activities will therefore be linked to specific outcomes formt he Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF).

This activity will involve reading Maurice Sendak's popular children’s book, Where the Wild Things Are. After reading the story, children can use masks and craft materials to play pretend, make sounds, and explore movement. Then, they will use blankets and pillows to build a “forest” in the classroom, where they can act out by moving, dancing, and playing instruments like drums, shakers, and tambourines.

This activity is called the “Popcorn Game.” In this, children play together by making a circle. A few children will pretend to be popcorn kernels in a pot, crouching low on the floor inside the circle. They will sing the song together. When the teacher calls “Pop!” the children jump up and bounce around like popcorn. When the teacher calls “Back in the pot!” the children crouch back down and get ready to pop again. This game promotes movement, creativity, and imaginative play.

This activity was inspired by the classroom activity in EDU 103. It teaches social skills like taking turns and following directions.

Educators should make every child feel included and safe, even those who are nervous to jump up or move around. Educators can adapt the game by inviting children to count in their home languages, say “pop” in different languages, or share movement ideas from their own cultures. This promotes respect for diversity and includes all children in the activity fostering multilingual learning and inclusivity..
