Yr3 Stig Of the Dump
Date: 24th Nov 2022 @ 12:17pm
Today we continued with our text “Stig of the Dump” by Clive King with Yr3 and today I posed a question “What would happen now if Barney found Stig in the 21st Century?” “How would this be reported in a digital world?”. In their groups they had to select a TV news presenter and then each remaining person of the group had to chose a character from the book. The reporters were given wooden spoons, for microphones and had to interview the witnesses to the discovery.
They were given 5 minutes to come up with questions and answers and create, rehearse and preform the piece of drama. Building on the previous sessions of hot seating and roll on the wall, I was amazed at how well they did and how clear their performances were too. Everyone in Yr3 were amazing, but I was blown over at how good George was. His performance and handling of the interview was smooth, it had pace and when someone forgot what they were going to say, he just moved straight on and filled the gap. Excellent. Well done Yr3.
