Othello Whoosh

A narrative technique where the play is broken down into short narrative chunks. Students can sit in a circle and are invited by the teacher to both ‘become’ characters but also settings and props. It is a fun and easy way to get through the narrative.
Follow on activities can include giving the students a copy of the Whoosh for them to then create a storyboard or news article in order to familiarise themselves with the story; or they can colour code the writing for themes or tension.
