KS2 / KS3 Drama - The Grinch Play Script (Christmas Play)

(0)
A funny play loosely based on the Grinch by Dr. Seuss, and the well known movie. The story revolves around the town of Whoville, where all the Whos love Christmas. In fact they love Christmas so much it is all they talk about! However, a mysterious outcast lives to the North of the town; this outcast hates Christmas and anything to do with the festive time of year. This outcast is called the Grinch! The play follows the story of Cindy-Lou and her family as they open up to the Grinch, and try to show him what Christmas is all about. However, the Grinch has his own plans to ruin Christmas for the town, and steals all the presents on Christmas eve. He has a change of heart however when he hears the town enjoying Christmas even though he had stolen all of the presents. His heart grows and he quickly returns the gifts and takes part in all the festivities. There are song recommendations throughout the script, with a mixture of traditional Christmas songs and modern songs. There are 28 speaking parts, with additional non-speaking roles too for up to 30 students. The play is around 40-50 minutes long. I hope you have fun with it, my class had a ball!

KS2 / KS3 Drama - Elf - The Play Script (Christmas Play)

(3)
Elf tells the story of ‘Buddy the Elf’ who was accidentally taken to the North Pole in Santa’s sack one Christmas Eve. He stayed in the North Pole until adulthood and grew up thinking he was an elf himself. One day he found out he was a human, and decided to go and visit his biological father in New York. On arrival he wasn’t welcomed by his father until a DNA test reassured him that he was actually his son. The family grew to like Buddy, and he also found a girlfriend – but then everything changed when he fell out with his father one day and decided to leave. But as he was walking alone he heard a crash in Central Park, when he went to investigate he noticed it was his good friend, Santa. The family caught up with him and realised he had been telling the truth all along, he was in fact an elf from the North Pole. The friends and family all worked together to lift Christmas spirit and thus power Santa’s sleigh to ensure he could finish his deliveries. There are song recommendations throughout the script, with a mixture of traditional Christmas songs and modern songs. There are 20-22 speaking parts, with additional non-speaking roles too. I hope you have fun with it, my class had a ball! The play is around 40-50 minutes long. ⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚⏚ For more great resources check out Creative Primary Literacy

A humorous re-write of the story / pantomime of Cinderella, designed to be performed in under 5 minutes. Adaptable / editable Word document, so you can make your own changes & add your own children to the attached cast list. Ideal for class assembly, this has gone down well at year 6 leavers’ assemblies. Great prompt for more able writers to write their own humorous ‘in 5 minutes’ versions of other well-known stories / pantomimes. To perform, it has 9 speaking parts, plus around a dozen non-speaking / crew / sound effect parts. If you liked this, search and download one of my other ‘in 5 minutes’ scripts.

Volcanoes Assembly or Class Play

(0)
Volcano Assembly or Class Play This class play can best be described as ... explosive! It is highly recommended that you purchase a pair of ear plugs before agreeing to sit through this performance! Even the Roman god of fire cannot control these forces of nature. ... though no one is about to try and control him! This script covers the questions what, how, where and a few examples of when - though ‘Pompeii up’ provides a far more comprehensive historical account of what happened in those two Roman cities destroyed by Mount Vesuvius (available off www.plays-r-ussell.com) Duration - around 10 minutes reading time but this does not include music (or explosions!) Cast of 30 - easily adaptable up or down. Sample Text: Music 1 Mars – The Planets – Gustav Holst (Children file in, seating themselves in speaking order, along two rows of fifteen seats facing the audience) Narrator: Good morning and welcome to our assembly on Music 2 Fire – Arthur Brown (See Production Notes) (Vulcan strides onto stage) Vulcan: (Pounding his chest) Me! The mighty Roman god of fire, Vulcan! Narrator: (Irritably) But its volcanoes we’re doing today! Not Roman gods! Vulcan: (Sighing) So, where do you think the word volcano comes from? Narrator: (Sarcastically) Oh, now. Don’t tell me. (Pauses) Oh, that wouldn’t be you would it? Vulcan: It most certainly would! Nothing to do with that Mars you were just playing. Narrator: No! No! That’s the planet Mars – from The Planets by Gustav Holst! Vulcan: But I thought you said this assembly was on volcanoes? Narrator: Correct! But we thought that music was just right to set the tone – of high drama! Vulcan: Oh! Is that what we’re getting this morning? Narrator: I hope so! There’s nothing dull about volcanoes! (Sound of loud snores from ‘Sleeping Giants’) Vulcan: Er, it would seem not everyone agrees with you! (Exit Vulcan) (Sleeping Giants all raise their heads, wipe their eyes, blinking at the audience) Narrator: Oh no! We haven’t woken you, have we? Sleeping Giant 1: Nah! Don’t worry! Sleeping Giant 2: We’re dormant volcanoes! Sleeping Giant 3: Little chance we’ll erupt! Sleeping Giant 4: (Yawning) In fact, if you don’t mind, we’ll just go back to sleep again! Narrator: No, no! Not at all! Please be my guest! (Sleeping Giants put heads down and resume sleep)

Blood Brothers - Linking the Play to Context

(0)
This engaging and interesting lesson enables students to demonstrate a clear and developed understanding of the historical context of Willy Russell’s Blood Brothers. In particular, students learn about the key social and historical events that took place in the UK in the 1970s and 80s (particularly around the play’s setting of Liverpool) and apply this understanding to characters and events in the play. The lesson utilises a range of tasks, that require students to be both independent and collaborative learners. It follows this learning journey: Considering and discussing ideas of class and class systems, both historically and in the present day; Sequencing and understanding the key features of the social and historical context of the UK/Liverpool in the 1970s and 80s; Using independent research to enhance their understanding of deeper contextual meanings; Linking the key events of the play to social and historical context, analysing Russell’s key messages; Taking part in a fun, interactive quiz in order to gauge their learning; Self-evaluating their learning in the lesson. Included in this resource pack are: A well-presented, thorough, and informative, whole-lesson PowerPoint presentation; Detailed cards for the sorting/timeline activity, presenting key contextual events; A ‘Researching Context’ template, to help guide students’ research; A template to help scaffold the main task, complete with quotes from the text; A comprehensive teacher guidance form/lesson plan to assist delivery. Resources are provided in both Word (for easy editing)and PDF (to prevent formatting issues between computers). All images in this resource are licensed for commercial use, and are cited on the final slide of the lesson presentation.

Skeleton and Muscles Assembly or Class Play

(0)
Skeleton and Muscles Assembly or Class Play Suitable for Key Stage II (Years 3 & 4) As our Narrator finds out, ‘Head Shoulders Knees and Toes’, however beautifully sung, is never going to ‘do it’ - not with an X-Ray Technician, Doctor and Physiotherapist around! And as for Halloween skeletons? Nah! Not if the bones are on the outside! Cast of 30 - easily adapted up or down. Duration - around 15 to 20 minutes. Sample Text: (Enter X-Ray Technician who takes one look at the ‘skeletons’ and falls about laughing) Skeleton 1: Hey! What’s so funny? X-Ray Technician: Well, to be honest (pauses) you! Skeleton 2: Hey! There’s nothing wrong with us! Skeleton 3: You’re not laughing at our costumes, are you? X-Ray Technician: Well, I’m guessing they’re from last year’s Halloween? Skeletons 1, 2 & 3: (Together, angrily) So? X-Ray Technician: So, you can’t expect to be taken seriously! Skeleton 1: And why not? X-Ray Technician: Well, has anybody ever told you, human beings have endoskeletons? Skeletons 1, 2 & 3: (Together) Endoskeletons? X-Ray Technician: Yes, that means skeletons inside the body! That’s what makes my job so important! Skeleton 2: And that job is? X-Ray Technician: (Holding up an x-ray) I’m an X-Ray Technician. I can see inside your body! (Skeletons all gasp and cross their hands in front of their bodies) X-Ray Technician: (Laughing) No! Not with my naked eyes. But I can see every bone there is to see, with my special x-ray machinery! Narrator: Aha! Some educational content! At last! I was beginning to worry! X-Ray Technician: Oh no need to worry! With a little bit of help from your class, we’ll have everyone talking bones in no time! Narrator: Well, that would be useful, I suppose. Our school science equipment certainly doesn’t run to x-ray machines! X-Ray Technician: Of course not! And way too dangerous to have within a school building! Narrator: But we do teach the children about their bodies. To a very high level in fact. (Narrator gestures for Child 1, 2 & 3 to step forward) So, children. What have you learnt so far? (Child 1, 2 and 3 launch into a lively version of ‘Head Shoulders Knees and Toes’; Narrator looks on smiling, whilst X-Ray Technician holds his head in bemusement) (Narrator, seeing the ever increasing look of bemusement on X-Ray Technician’s face, stops the singing) Narrator: (To X-Ray Technician) What is the matter?

How to Play 'Go Fish'

(2)
A visually supported guide for how to play the card game ‘Go Fish’. This resource uses appropriate language for KS2 and above, and was written for KS4 and KS5 pupils in a special school. Vocabulary is simple and defined, and the processes of the card game are shown in easy to understand visual sequences, using card faces. The resource was designed by a Specialist Speech and Language Therapist to enable students, with a wide range of cognitive abilities, to enhance their social skills and access structured activities at break times. LEarning a card game gives students a life long skill and interest. Card games teach patience and social skills, and give children a quick way to start and maintain interaction with a wider range of students. Teaching structured games can help autistic students to develop friendships, and to make the most of break times - which can often be overwhelming! Go Fish is a fun and easy to pick up game, which develops memory skills as well as card recognition and matching. The game can also be used to explore statistics and probability. Easy to play at first, students can be quickly engaged and then be challenged to learn and improve.
