Summary/Abstract: It often happens that the experiences of students go beyond the knowledge and awareness of teach- ers. Of course, in every class team, there are children who share their impressions and experiences very willingly, but there are also those who keep them deeply hidden. In the article, I tried to show that you can have some insight into the experiences of children, and even use their shaping poten- tial — consciously and systematically using the drama method, while at the same time, acting in the spirit of the principles of pedagogy derived from Kurt Hahn’s experiences.In my considerations, the pedagogy of experiences, implemented with the use of the drama method, does not go beyond the physically understood school walls, but I hope it suggests how to overcome at least some of their limitations.
