Drama time in year 9

Skits and Sketches

Some of you will cheer and some of you will dred it but drama time it is! 


In groups I want you to:
Produce, practice and perform an English skit, sketch or play that is about 15 minutes long
Use props and perhaps even backdrops :)
Record it 
Add subtitles 
Add a fancy title page 

You can of course write the whole darn thing yourselves but you don't have to. You can pick one up on the page below and adapt it to your wishes or just rip it straight off.





Time at your disposal:

Friday w 42 English lesson
                                         Monday w 43 Swedish lesson
                                         Tuesday w 43 Swedish lesson
                                   Friday w 43 English lesson

Put your finished work in Google Drive, on YouTube or wherever and link it in the work section here (Lämna in arbeten-fliken). Yes, you will ALL need to link the work, I have to grade you all so it's no more than fair!


(You are scheduled to read the book Holes by Louie Sachar after the autumn holiday. Chapters 1-25 plus discussions on Friday w 45 and chapters 26-50 plus a test on the book (!!) Friday w 46. If all logistics fail in your group you could use the lesson w 45 to finish your recording - I can't say I mind much ;) - you will still do the test on the book w 46. I want to have a test and feel like I have important subjects too!)
