KS3 Drama 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime' Scheme of Work
’The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime’ the play by Simon Stephens KS3 Drama Scheme of Work
This is a 7 week Drama scheme of work aimed at Year 8 students although could easily be adapted for any KS3 year group. I have planned for 7 weeks in the scheme but I have also completed it over a 6 week and 8 week term as well - the assessment task or the physical theatre lesson can take an additional lesson.
The scheme has a focus on character relationships in the play. It does include one physical theatre lesson, but this is not the main focus of the scheme.
The scheme covers - introduction to the plot, understanding Christopher, Christopher and Ed, Christopher and Siobhan, physical theatre (at the train station) and an assessment task exploring a short scene and a monologue.
This resources includes;
Workbook
PowerPoints for each of the 7 lessons.
Resources
The resources does include short extracts from the play itself, however I would suggest that you try to get a copy of the book yourself as it will support in the teaching of the scheme.
Images from Noun Project are accredited in the Notes section of the PowerPoints.

I don’t include the assessment extracts in this as there is quite a sizeable amount of the script included.

'Macbeth' KS3 Drama Scheme of Work
Macbeth KS3 Drama Scheme of Work
This is a 7 week Drama scheme of work aimed at Year 9 students. Each lesson contains a performance and design option for students to choose between - created to support students who haven’t opted for GCSE Drama with the aim of giving them an understanding of Macbeth in performance (my students study it for GCSE English). My students had done some work on each of the design elements previously, so I don’t go into detail about how to do these.
The scheme covers four short extracts from the play, looking at different characters and with a focus on status, intentions, intepretation or atmosphere in the scene.
The last two lessons are based on completing a live theatre review. I have used the National Theatre ‘Macbeth’ from 2017, found on the National Theatre Collection.
This resources includes;
Workbook (containing most of the resources for the design tasks)
PowerPoints for each of the 7 lessons.
Resources
There is no written scheme of work with this resource.
