Follow up creative writing activities based on the book Park Lane School Presents… The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. This story is written by a primary school teacher and based on a real play performed by a class of 9 year olds. Sam, the central character, is a real pupil from Class 4. Sam loves drama and would like to see himself in a star acting part, but when it comes to the casting, he gets nervous and freezes in the audition. His teacher assesses that he will be more comfortable with a small part and a technical role backstage - which Sam reluctantly accepts. Through Sam, we experience all the feelings of excitement as the class work together on the play, preparing props and costumes. We experience the euphoria of the first night and that temptation for a child to peep out from behind the stage curtain to wave at mum and dad. Children will empathise with Sam, with his feelings of excitement, disappointment, anxiety, envy and so on. These are emotions and feelings they will have experienced. This opens up an opportunity for feedback. In addition to this, children can try and imagine how parents feel and how the teachers feel. In this pack, we have put together some questions and writing exercises that will give your child the chance to explore their own experiences and feelings. Colour in the pictures. For children age 6-10 45 pages
