For our main research, we chose a 5th year kindergarten class, which we divided into nine teams. The aim was to analyze their efforts at creating a collaborative play with the goal of using dialogue as a method of studying the process of drama interpretation. After analyzing each episode of the book, the kindergartners performed their plays and noticed the differences in each other's interpretations. They used dialogue to cope with their opinions, and thus got closer to achieving a practical method of expressing themselves. At the same time, they managed to clarify for each other exactly what they were trying to express. What became clear was that as a team they learned to share the process of focusing their attention. Also, they learned that "the aim of their activities" was the same as "achieving reality."
