Orphans and vulnerable children have many problems, including communication problems, especially language problems and poor vocabulary, and creative drama with a good background in the development of communication skills can be effective in improving these problems. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of designing an educational model based on creative drama in order to improve the communication problems of orphaned and vulnerable children. The present study was conducted with a combined approach in two stages. In the qualitative part, the components of the educational model based on creative drama and the order and sequence of these components were identified through systematic review of resources, and in the quantitative part, the validity of the designed model was assessed quantitatively using a questionnaire. Finally, the educational model was designed based on qualitative analysis and extraction of main and repetitive themes in the sources. The components of this model were defined according to the main stages of educational design (problem analysis, design, implementation, evaluation, correction and revision). To implement the model in the educational environment of orphans and vulnerable children, eight educational steps (determining the content, introducing the course, performing the language development pre-test, performing motor training, demonstration practice, improvisation practice, performing creative drama and performing pre-test) were suggested. The validity of the model was confirmed by experts according to descriptive analysis and chi-square test results.
