For our iExperience SOI, Nalini and I collaborated together to design a drama iExperience for our learners from Kukuwai and Marama. It catered for learners from Y1-2 & Y5-6.
What has been going well?
We worked together to create the OrmPS drama progressions for Levels 1, 2 & 3 of the NZ curriculum. Our progressions had the AOs, descriptors and resources added to it. I planned the level 1 and Nalini planned for Levels 2 & 3. Our main focus was to use drama to share and idea and message.
My lesson consisted of a Readers Theatre where learners had to listen to and read plays from books. They also so had a basic idea about the 5 elements of drama.
Cast of characters which are:
Setting
Dialogue
Stage direction
Acts and scenes
What did I noticed?
What would I do differently?
I noticed that some learners were more confident while others were shy to speak. They collaborated well and the more confident learners helped the less confident learners with the words of the play.
I will go around and listen to the readers theatre and reflect on the clarity of voice and expression. Maybe if I need more time I could continue with some aspects of drama during iExplore.
