If preferred it could be that you could request for some senior drama pupils from your cluster high school to perform the sketches to enable all children to watch or have P7 pupils take on roles to perform.
It would be advisable to have a short introduction and questioning session prior to the sketches and a follow up open forum for comments following before beginning workshops.

I have designed this music topic pack with the intention of covering various aspects of music education, along with the ability to include this within an integrated curricular planner. This topic brings ICT in throughout as well as easily lending itself to the inclusion of various other curricular areas, such as language, social studies, science, design & technology, ICT, drama, P.E. and art.
This pack would be particularly beneficial if used in conjunction with a topic on the weather/seasons/nature. Elements could also be linked in well to a topic on Europe. Although some of the lessons may appear to be more ICT based than music, the aim is that the children expand their experience in all areas of music while using new technology. Some of the lessons are more traditionally musically based than others, but each one will provide a beneficial learning experience for the children. They are going to be gaining experience in a range of skills and abilities, such as playing instruments, composing, listening and discussing, working collaboratively, using music as an inspiration for other areas, being able to identify techniques used in music to portray different moods and images.
