Over the years I have taught English, Maths, PSHE, Film Studies, Media Studies as well as Drama. As a result of teaching many subjects I have spent hours creating schemes and resources so I am hoping this will save you a lot of time. I hope it does.
I also have many years experience as a Pastoral Leader / SEN Teacher meaning I also have resources to support effective behaviour management, safeguarding and Special Educational Needs.

The power point contains monologue workshop activities in order to support students through their choice of monologue as well as vocal and physical exploration. There are two resources attached to support the activities. Most of these activities can also be used when exploring duologues as well.

There is an accompanying power point for the scheme of work. There are some pictures you will need to source yourself as for copyright reasons I am unable to include. These are a picture of the play front cover, a picture of Malala Yousafzai and a picture of women’s dress in 1896. There are also resources included that are referenced in the scheme.
There are fifteen drama cover lessons that can also be used as one off lessons included in this bundle. There are ten designed for KS4 and five designed for KS3.

This fairytale drama scheme of work was written for KS3 Drama. The unit of work includes lesson activities, learning objectives, outcomes, homework and suggested open and closed questions. The main focus of the unit of work is creating traditional fairytales using non-naturalistic techniques, as well as exploring modernising the plot.
This bell activity booklet contains 9 drama word searches presented in a booklet form. There is also an answer booklet showing where all of the answers are for each word search. Topics include costume, lighting, set, explorative strategies, voice, movement, genre, elements and mediums.
Included in this bundle are 10 KS3 Drama cover lessons and 5 "Blood Brothers" Cover lessons.
These lessons can also be used as a one off lesson as all include lesson objectives and tasks. Some lessons will require you to print the stimulus, but this is referenced in the lesson.
There are five cover lessons included here which are all based on the play "Blood Brothers." These can also be used as one off lessons. Ideally, all of these lessons would benefit from students being able to use the scripts, but this is not essential. The lessons include:
Blood Brothers - A Different Ending?
Mickey and Eddie Lesson
Characters from "Blood Brothers"
Music From "Blood Brothers" (Will need you to print the song lyrics)
Themes from "Blood Brothers"
Included in this bundle are:
Live Performance Review scheme of work, separate live performance review lesson plan, power point and resources as well as a student notes workbook when attending a live performance.
The only thing missing in each resource are the pictures you will be reviewing. These will need to be uploaded prior to delivery. However, this means the resource is adaptable and can be used every time you are delivering a live review topic.
All three resources contain six one hour drama workshops each. There are two script sets of workshops (DNA and The Woman in Black) and there is a devised workshop where students will question if it is socially and morally right to discriminate.
Two of the resources (Body Image and Derek Bentley) include a scheme of work with accompanying power points to support the delivery. One resource (Art Gallery) includes a power point with an accompanying student work book and voice and movement flashcards that can be used in any drama lesson. The Art gallery resource will require you to insert four pictures of your choice in order to create the art gallery. However, all activities within the resource can be used for any picture used.
This KS3 Drama bundle includes a scheme of work investigating and creating families in a family tree. The second resource is a lesson plan where students solve the crime of "Who stole the cake?" with the third being a lesson plan for a police investigation drama. All resources are included.
This KS3 bundle includes two schemes of work and a set of performance analysis question cards. The Black History Scheme of Work uses historical and contemporary influential figures to create original pieces of drama. The spontaneous Drama improvisation scheme looks at the skills required to spontaneously create original pieces of work. The question cards are differentiated to enable all learners to participate during the evaluation of performances.
This bundle includes two schemes of work that can be delivered during KS3 Drama lessons. One is an Arts in the Media scheme which focuses on soap opera and the second is a Drama Improvisation scheme. Also included in the bundle are four A4 audience role sheets that can be used during performance evaluations. The audience roles include The Interpretation Analyst and The Facilitator. Each sheet has key questions that the audience should consider when watching a performance. The sheets can be rotated to ensure each student completes all four audience roles.
This stimuli devising project includes a power point and a student workbook. It can be used for any devising project, and can be used at both KS3 and KS4.
The power point contains lessons where students look at four different stimuli (WB Yeats' He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven, the start of Oscar Wilde's The Selfish Giant, Work Place Discrimination and the story of Malala Yousafzai). Students will then compare and contrast these resources to create an original piece of drama. The above content will be delivered over three lessons.
Students will then look at picture stimuli and will compare and contrast two pictures leading to an original performance. I am unable to include the pictures for copyright reasons.
The final part of the project will be where students respond to different forms of possible discriminations (Disability / Homophobia / Sexism / Race ). Although this is one lesson, it has potential to be adapted into an assessment that could last for longer.
There is a student workbook which enables students to keep portfolio evidence as they progress through their lessons.
This unit of work looks at the job role of the actor in terms of what qualities are required, which other roles they work with in the industry, and the final piece of work would be the creation of a power point to educate aspiring actors. Students will also research other roles within the acting industry.
This would ideally need to be delivered in an ICT room, but could be adapted for the classroom provided case studies of job roles could be provided.
There is a unit of work that contains learning objectives, learning outcomes, homework, suggested activities as well as suggested open and closed questions. The unit of work contains six lesson plans.
There is a project pack included which involves students exploring Theatre in Education, the purpose, the similarities and differences to theatre as well as the job roles within Theatre in Education. This forms a homework project that supports the unit of work.
Some of the resources are included, but actor case studies would need to be printed for one lesson. For copyright reasons I am unable to include these.
There are five KS3 drama cover lessons, as well as a word search that can be used as a bell activity in any drama lesson.
The Street Drama cover involves students creating characters based on the residents in three houses. The students will be able to explore community living through drama.
The Soap Opera cover involves students creating their own soap opera.
The First Line, Setting and Plot Point cover gives students selected information that they use as a starting point to create pieces of drama.
The Old Man and His Grandson by Brothers Grimm cover looks at the discrimination faced by the Grandad and focuses on what the message is.
The Fairy Tale cover looks at creating a different ending to a familiar fairy tale.
