A note from the author: I use this scheme of work with my Year 9 classes, as not only does it offer exciting and creative opportunities, but it also allows for complex exploration how to direct. The students assessment allows them to experience both directing a piece of drama and to be directed in a piece of drama. Objective Overview of Director SOW § To explore a variety of ways to direct others, and to develop and hone the skills of a competent director. § Students should recognise the communicative powers of theatre, and ensure all work aims to evoke a response or provide a message to the intended audience. § Students to play around with script extracts, and block sections of text. § Students should collaborate effectively with other group members. Included: In-depth Scheme of Work Lesson Resources (Worksheets, Scripts, Activity Sheets, Evaluations) Assessment Instructions Please note: You may want to purchase ‘The Believers’ by Bryony Lavery, ‘Spring Awakening’ by Georg Buchner and ‘Tristan & Yseult’ by Kneehigh, or ‘Crouch, Touch, Pause, Engage’ however any extract duologues can work for the main assessment.

A note from the author: This is scheme of work is mainly for KS3 students, but would also suit KS4, to experiment with devising techniques, and how to craft their own drama. There is a group devising booklet that accompanies the assessment, and all students should keep a reflective journal/log of the devising process. Objective Overview of Love & Hate § Students to create a devised performance on any aspect of the theme of Love & Hate, based on the stimuli provided (themes, text, poems, pictures etc.) and explorative devising techniques. § Students to develop skills in devising, physical theatre, group work, theatre creation, theatre structure, scriptwriting, transitions and communicating meaning for an audience. § Students to gain an introductory knowledge of physical theatre techniques.
