Abstract

The article highlights the possibilities of applying elements of theatre arts in the process of preschool and primary school teachers professional training. In particular, it reveals the issue of forming musical and choreographic competence in students by means of various forms, types and methods of drama. The main forms of musical and choreographic competence formation in preschool and primary school teachers are practical and laboratory classes (disciplines “Pedagogy”, “Fundamentals of pedagogical creativity”, “Fundamentals of stage and screen art with teaching methods”, “Organization of theater activity in preschool education institutions”, “Methods of music education”, “Musical art with methods of teaching”, etc.) and extracurricular forms of students’ theater activity (drama societies, drama studios, etc.).

Important types of drama activities in the process of training future preschool and primary school teachers are staging and dramatization, within which it is advisable to use different methods of forming students’ musical and choreographic competence: music-motor and drama games, staging of fairytales and songs, improvisation on a given theme-image, sketches, etc. Their use contributes to the development of a holistic set of musical and choreographic abilities, formation of singing skills, stage and dance movements, upbringing of future teachers’ performance culture and so on.
