Are you looking to create a clear, concise and effective assessment criteria for your Drama curriculum? If so, this resource pack will provide you with the perfect framework needed to offer structure and direction for both you and your pupils.
The assessment framework can also be used as a target-setting tool, where pupils termly or half-termly use their workbooks to review their progress and to offer another level of inter-activity. They can also use a passport-sized photo to move around the framework display board (preferably on show in each classroom) as and when they achieve their set target.
Included in this resource pack is the following:
Assessment framework for Years 3-9 (adaptable, depending on which year groups you teach and when pupils start Drama).
Drama workbooks for Years 5-9. Differentiated for specific year groups and editable, depending on year groups you teach and exam boards you work with (specific to Year 9 in preparation for GCSE).
Are you planning to deliver a Theatre in Education unit this year? If so, this extensive resource is perfect for you!
The tried-and-tested T.I.E. pack includes:
Schemes of work
Assignment briefs
Evidence tables
Feeder school letter template
Helpsheet
Quiz
Schedule template
Self Assessment
The end result could involve performances to younger pupils within your own school. Or if you fancy using this as a more wide-reaching opportunity, it has been very successful as an outreach project, with presentations being taken to local feeder schools. Management will love it and some of your pupils might even get the chance to visit and perform at their old Infants or Junior Schools!
