The aim of this research is teaching addition with natural numbers and the concept of large and small natural numbers in the second grade mathematics course, through creative drama method. The study has been applied to 31 elementary school second grade students studying at a public school in the province of Aydın. In this research, case study based on observation method, which is one of the qualitative research methods, has been employed. The data have been collected through drama lesson plans, observation, and interview methods. The activities involving the acquisitions of ''adding two-digit natural numbers'' and ''absorbing large-small concepts'' prepared by the researcher, have been applied in the classroom. The drawings of students, literary notes, and observation reports kept by researchers have been used in the evaluation of the activity. As a result of this application, students' views towards the questions covering the whole application have been gathered. The results of the study suggest that prepared-planned creative drama activities are an entertaining and enjoyable way for students to learn. The notes taken by the participative observers and findings obtained from the interviews indicate that drama activities increase sharing among students and that the students could associate what they have learned with some of the situations they encounter in their every day-life. It is observed that the students learn by having more fun while playing games, which involves a high amount of physical movements. Drawing the attention of students through instructions in the warm-up phase of the activity increased students' curiosity in learning. In the animation phase of the activity, it was observed that the students' interest in the mathematics increased, they had fun while making the mathematical operations, their participation to the lesson was high throughout the activity, the energy they received from the lesson was at the maximum level, they learned by doing and living, and they obtained an experience they could use in their every day-life. In the evaluation phase of the activity, the students were asked to describe how they felt by drawing a picture or writing a story as a summary of the creative drama activity they experiences by doing. According to the stories they have written and the pictures they have drawn, it is apparent that they were entertained and happy throughout the activity. The results of this study indicate that the students relieve their mental exhaustion and a relaxed classroom setting is achieved through the relaxation activities.

Development of pre-school math skills based on an instructional design with creative dramaIt is known that the foundations of learning in the cultural and educational process are laid in the preschool period. In this period, children acquire information on many different subjects by interacting with their environment in every field. Suggestions, intuitions, and experiences lie in the formation of this knowledge. Children, who learn mainly through intuition, gain experiences thanks to the mutual symbolization they make with objects. In this process, they try to make sense of what they perceive according to their experiences. In this study, it was aimed to improve the mathematical skills of preschool children with the use of creative drama techniques, based on the strategies suggested in the instructional design model of Seels and Glasgow, and accordingly, the teaching processes were designed with sessions and activities that included two classroom processes and discussed within the scope of the literature. Keywords: Creative drama; game; instructional design (ID); mathema...

Creative Drama Course, one of the active teaching methods, has been used in the study by the aim of determining which aspects might affect perspectives, concerns and attitudes of the students towards mathematics. In this study, we aimed to determine the attitudes and concerns of pre-service teachers towards mathematics who take Creative Drama course. As a data collection tool, " Creative Drama Attitude Scale " developed by Okvuran (2000) and " Mathematics Anxiety Scale " developed by Biber (2012) have been used in the study. We determined that the levels of attitude and anxiety of pre-service teachers did not suggest any significant difference in terms of gender factor. Besides, it has been concluded that the performed process with creative drama decreases the level of student's anxiety on Mathematics and positively affects their attitudes towards Mathematics as well. In conclusion, It can be said that the teaching method we used can be efficient in teaching.
