Currently the Year 7’s have been focusing on creating performances through the use of movement and working collaboratively. Our current Unit is called ‘Physical Theatre’ and the main performance skills we have been developing are; movement. choreography and gestures. Students have settled well into this topic and have produced a number of performances which have been filmed and assessed.
Year 8 have further developed their drama skills by being given a range of stimuli by which they have to devise a dramatic performance. For our ‘Stimuli” module, students have performed collaboratively, using exploratory strategies to create their unique performances. The key skills they have developed so far are our staging, movement and physical theatre techniques.
