P5-7 and a couple of pupils from Sandness Primary took part in this year’s Drama Festival at Mareel. The play was about some Vikings trying to get into Valhalla after a battle. The children did well to learn all their lines and delivered them with impeccable comic timing, keeping the audience on the night well amused. Their performance was such a success that they won the Junior section Trophy. Well Done.
A huge thanks goes to Hilary Smith for giving up her time to come and work with the pupils on this.
We have been studying another Pie Corbet story – Dragonory, similar to the 3 Billy Goats Gruff, it tells the tale of a plucky protagonist outwitting a grumpy Dragon.
These movie sets will be used as part of our stop animation depiction of the Dragonory Story.
During the past two weeks we have been looking at story telling and focusing on Jack Foretells the Future where a young man appears to tell the future of a hapless farmer. We are making the story our own by creating a puppet show for the whole class based on what we’ve been learning. Others have been using the story as inspiration for their own creations.
