Midnight Gang Drama Activities

To finish off term 3 we began a drama unit based on our class book this term 'The Midnight Gang'. We really enjoyed this great book by David Walliams.
To begin our drama learning we first completed some warm up activities that focused on using our bodies to sculpt and show a variety of things. We worked in pairs and acted as sculptor and statue, we also worked in groups to create a variety of objects or scenes. We used our bodies as props and tried to show as much as we could through gesture and expression. Having only 30 seconds for our groups to work on our image made it a real challenge! There was lots of quick thinking involved!
We are going to further develop our drama skills by recreating parts of the book in groups. We will be focusing on developing our characters, using dramatic space and using our bodies to tell a story.
In Room 7 we know that some of us find drama a bit tricky, so part of our learning has also been about giving new things a go and challenging ourselves to step out of our comfort zone.
