Challenge for students

Teaching Points
  • Choose a short dramatic sequence to present outdoors.
  • Form teams and give roles for the presentation (e.g. directing, props, make-up, set design, acting).
  • Write plans for (and possibly storyboard) the presentation, showing your choices about:
    • the type of presentation (e.g. live performance, video shoot)
    • a suitable location (remembering the limitations that the class listed before)
    • how the location will need to be altered
    • any sets needed and how and when they will be made
    • expected problems (e.g. traffic, weather, light conditions) and how to deal with them.
  • Carry out the plans.

You might want to limit the locations, materials, or building processes that can be used and/or the time for making the presentation.

Possible locations: school field, playground, park, bush or forest area, hillside, car park.

Possible materials: timber, heavy card, plywood, canvas, polystyrene.
