Summer Week 5 – Performing our Play Scripts

This half term in Year 5, we have written our own play scripts based on Greek myths and legends. After perfecting our dialogue and stage directions, we then brought our plays to life and performed them.

We hope you enjoy watching them as much as enjoyed making them!

The Sun and Moon Catastrophe

The Great Weaving Contest

King Midas and the Golden Touch

The Terrible Feast

Odysseus and the Cyclops

Medusa

    It was so fun to do our own scripts and pick our own myths. I learnt how to act better with all the feedback, when I was looking for a myth, I found this one, It really shocked me so after this I want to look at more Greek Myths and Legends.

    I enjoyed it because it was fun to make our own playscripts and stage directions. I learned a lot because I learned how to act better and do scripts really easily. It has inspired me to do more research in Greek Myths and Legends because when I found this one it really shocked me, it was such a well written story and if they’re more I’d be hooked.

    I really enjoyed it because drama is one of my favorite things to do in English because you get to work as a group and you work as a team. from the feed back i got, i think i learnt that that when working as a team it is everyone’s ideas put in.Also this lesson inspired me to try and write my own play. Finally my favorite one i watched was the terrible feast.

    I learnt that play scripts are really hard to write and they need lots of stage directions and you have to include even the smallest bits like a grin or a cough.

    I really enjoyed the performances because it let us all show how much we know about myths and how great our acting skills out.

    This has inspired me to learn more about acting and play scripts because it will help me improve my acting skills and share it with others.

    I loved this experience! It was great to have the opertunity of writing a playscript with a group of people who you might not work with alot. It gave a chance to really get to know how others work in groups. I enjoyed performing our play as then we could get feedback on what could be improved and what was good. I liked that people gave us points on how to improve for the next performance.
    Thank you Miss Henderson!

    I learnt that feedback can improve plays a lot better than before. I really enjoyed wearing costumes as it was really colourful and bright. This play that we performed inspired me to read more Greek myths as I didn’t read as much before.

    I really liked this topic of acting and to make it better we got to make our own play scripts! I learnt that a lot of myths and legends and how real life actors feel when they are performing. Everyone put there blood, sweat and tears into their performances and they were amazing. My favourite part would be performing it was nice to see the rest of the class’s face light up with smiles and even make them laugh. It really has inspired me to learn about acting and who knows maybe you’ll see one of us on the BroadWay!
    GO CLASS FIVE!!
    I mean yay well-done everybody…

    It was extremely fun making these plays, and we hope that everyone enjoyed watching them! We got to learn really important lessons like how to work as a team, which is a life skill, not just a lesson to learn for primary school.

    I enjoyed using props and costumes as well as developing our acting skills. It also meant that other than writing our playscripts, we got to do no writing for 2 weeks!!!

    I learnt about lots of different things during this topic. The first thing was working together, which I enjoyed as well as learnt. This was sometimes difficult as we were told to choose some people that we didn’t usually work with, but the weeks when we were working on these plays, we got to know the people in our group more. Another thing I learnt was how the spider came into being. I learnt this from watching The Great Weaving Contest. It is important to learn new things from your classmates.

    Our topic on Ancient Greece has inspired me to learn more about myths. Also, when acting, it has inspired me to do more acting, and creative things, in and out of school.

    Thank you Miss Henderson for letting us perform these plays to the best of our abilities, and learn things from other people at the same time. I really enjoyed this topic.
