Developmental Improvisation is a new, revolutionary tool for teaching cognitive development and social/ emotional understanding using the art of improvisation designed specifically for the classroom.

Created by educator Linda Kellogg Fulton, based on her fifty plus years working in improvisation, it offers students a unique, beneficial, and fascinating experience-based exploration into the realm of Social Emotional Learning through imaginative excursions and cooperative play.

Developmental Improvisation provides participants an opportunity to experience all the probabilities of human behavior in realistic, authentic situations that come through a variety of safe, educational, and thrilling exercises and games.  

Developmental Improvisation provides balance to traditional education, offering students a vehicle for enhancing their intellect, cooperation, communication, and other skills by encouraging them to find solutions for any issues. This revolutionary approach to learning allows students to put their critical thinking and creative problem-solving to the test through spontaneously imaginative “What would you do?” situations.

The end result is students growing in not just their intellect, but also their compassion and instinct, making for well-rounded individuals who will be prepared for anything life has to offer.

All while having as much fun as possible!
