KS2 / KS3 Drama - Elf - The Play Script (Christmas Play)

(3)
Elf tells the story of ‘Buddy the Elf’ who was accidentally taken to the North Pole in Santa’s sack one Christmas Eve. He stayed in the North Pole until adulthood and grew up thinking he was an elf himself. One day he found out he was a human, and decided to go and visit his biological father in New York.<br /> <br /> On arrival he wasn’t welcomed by his father until a DNA test reassured him that he was actually his son. The family grew to like Buddy, and he also found a girlfriend – but then everything changed when he fell out with his father one day and decided to leave.<br /> <br /> But as he was walking alone he heard a crash in Central Park, when he went to investigate he noticed it was his good friend, Santa. The family caught up with him and realised he had been telling the truth all along, he was in fact an elf from the North Pole. The friends and family all worked together to lift Christmas spirit and thus power Santa’s sleigh to ensure he could finish his deliveries.<br /> <br /> There are song recommendations throughout the script, with a mixture of traditional Christmas songs and modern songs. There are 20-22 speaking parts, with additional non-speaking roles too.<br /> <br /> I hope you have fun with it, my class had a ball! The play is around 40-50 minutes long.<br /> <br /> ⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚<br /> <br /> For more great resources check out Creative Primary Literacy

Christmas nativity play KS1 and KS2

(1)
I am Head of Drama at a preparatory school in London UK, planning my Year Three nativity play to be performed at our local church this Christmas. I wrote this short nativity play, after struggling to find such a fun, child-friendly script myself. It tells The Christmas Story in language that children and adults alike can relate to, with humour to engage the audience of all ages. The cast list suits a year group of 36 children aged between five-eight years of age, but can be adapted for a cast of 27 or less children. I am an award-winning writer myself, so plenty of opportunity for children to have fun with this! <br /> Here is a sample for you:<br /> Mary: I’m not sure about all these animals…<br /> Joseph: You’ll be fine, dear. They’ll bring us luck for the birth!<br /> Inn keeper [pointing at the sheep to stand by Mary]: Take good care of Nasreen, my pet sheep!<br /> Mary: Who has a sheep for a pet?!

Constructive Play in Child Development

(0)
<p>The importance of play in a child’s development is sometimes overlooked or underrated. However, constructive play, where children engage in creating, building, and experimenting, holds extraordinary power in shaping young minds. From stacking blocks to crafting intricate forts, this type of play not only fuels imagination but also fosters critical skills such as problem-solving, collaboration, and resilience. As children immerse themselves in hands-on activities, they learn to navigate challenges, express their creativity, and develop a sense of accomplishment. In this article I will delve into the transformative power of constructive play on child development, explore its cognitive and emotional benefits, and provide practical tips for parents and educators to incorporate this enriching experience into everyday life.</p>

See the others below:</p> <ul> <li>Examining masks using slow looking</li> <li>Masks within performance</li> <li>Masks as a symbol of protest</li> <li>Masks as a means of protection</li> </ul> <p>SHAPE is a collective name for social sciences, humanities and the arts. SHAPE subjects play a vital role within our communities and in shaping our lives – past, present and future.
