Year 7

Waiting: an introduction to drama conventions

The objective of this lesson is for pupils to know and demonstrate the key features of effective still image to tell a story. They will respond imaginatively to stimulus to generate ideas, and will then devise original still images to tell a story in sequence, using the key features of still image. Pupils will experiment with transitions, and music to affect mood.

Looking out of the window: using still images and transitions

In this lesson, we will define and demonstrate thought tracking and write original dialogue in role. We will develop still images from lesson one by adding lines of thought tracking to our original dialogue. We will also consider what makes an interesting script.


What are they thinking? Using thought tracking and writing in role

In this lesson, we will consider set and props as elements of devising drama. We will experiment with how props can be used to convey meaning, and design and annotate our own prop.
