This week we are working on our flashback scenes. We are exploring the theatre convention of the narrator as storyteller. We are also looking at the back story of our characters to understand how they came to be in the situation in which they find themselves.

This week we worked on subtext. We explored what our characters might be thinking in a given moment in the story. We saw the school play The Scandalous Sisterhood of Prickwillow Place. We wrote a letter as a character creating a monologue. We started to create a scene which had a flashback in it as we explored what it means for theatre to be a temporal art. We created a set design for one of the worlds of our play.
This week in drama we will be working on learning about staging. We will work on adding our own interpretive ideas to a scene. We will look at how to create a subtext for a character. We will explore the two worlds of the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe.
This week in 6th grade drama we learned about the class. We explored non-verbal movement and made images with our bodies. We learned about the historical contest of the novel we are going to dramatize. We did a process drama about "Operation Pied Piper" which happened in London during the Blitz. We were introduced to our characters in The Lion the Witch and , the Wardrobe.
