3 lessons to introduce pupils to key terminology for section A of the exam. Pupils work work through the colour work booklet and learn about the different roles and responsibilities of those who work in the theatre and the different type of staging. All selected terminology is what has been specified in the new specification; all images used are from Google searches.
A six week scheme introducing the play and its performance, including set design and character mood boards. The lesson plan (PowerPoint) for weeks 4 and 6 can be repeated again and again by simply choosing a different extract of the play to work with; the exam paper from week 6 can also be easily and quickly rewritten by again choosing a different extract. You will need a copy of the play to photocopy your extracts from- the extracts referred to in the PowerPoints here are NOT included with this scheme of work due to copyright.
A link to a full performance of the play on youtube is also included to support pupils' study of the performance elements.
