This week the children have learnt that there are shifts in formality during the script. The scene setting is always written in a formal way and the characters vary in formality, dependent upon who they are. For example the king will be formal, whilst a peasant will not speak in a formal way. We have looked at commas to separate clauses and then today we looked at how to apply the stage directions. The children worked in small groups to complete this and then acted out their lines they had written, being sure to include how to say the lines as per the stage directions.
