What do teachers say about this resource? (3232)
A highly useful teaching resource for planning engaging and enjoyable KS3 Drama lessons - for both the teacher and the students! Individual activities are well explained and provide clear and detailed instructions... The range of activities provides plenty of scope for lesson planning. Each activity has a clear aim, resources and timescale section... This resource has enhanced the Department's teaching of Year 7 Drama - specifically through greater focus on the use of starters and outlining the clear aim of these starters. For non-specialists, the resource is particularly useful in introducing activities which they may not be familiar with... This resource does not assume you already have knowledge of the activities listed; instead, it adopts a clear step-by-step approach to each activity... If you find yourself regularly resorting to the same warm-up games or main activities for a lunchtime Drama club, this resource can widen your range of methods... A very useful resource!
I liked the originality of the ideas. Very useful resource and quite different from other things I've seen recently. I think that the activities are really well-explained in simple terms, and as a non-drama specialist, I would be comfortable using them. It enhances self-confidence and there is a place for even the shyest of students in these activities
A good resource. I like the cookbook layout, which links nicely to three-part lessons. Many of the games could be used with any age group and other activities could be tweaked to suit particular ages. I think it is really good for a new group or a drama club when you are focussing on group dynamics and team-building – but objectives are clearly outlined, enabling you to dip into it and select activities which suit the needs of the group. I think the recipe book format really works – each lesson is a 'recipe' and includes all the appropriate elements such as resources, times, objectives and method as well as tips
Great resource to use when looking for new/fresh ideas, particularly for years 8 & 9. A well thought out resource that will be a good addition to a busy drama teacher's scheme of work
Plenty of action opportunities for students, the material is apt for the age group and there’s an easy, faintly humorous style of presentation. It’s not too prescriptive, but there’s enough detail to enable a Drama specialist to exploit the material... A handy book to have on the Drama shelf
User friendly. [The author has an] enthusiastic voice, [is] obviously experienced in teaching Drama to the age range, and communicates an enjoyment. Very reassuring for new teachers of Drama and for non specialists teaching the subject
I loved how the ideas were broken down into resources/methods/aims... It really gives you an understanding of the activity.
