Year 5 Use Drama to Explore Text

Year 5 have been exploring the inner thoughts and feelings of the Errand boy in their new English text The Errand.

Only the very start of the text has been shared, where the boy is travelling through the Whispering Wood.

Year 5 explored the perspective of both the boy and the trees, plants and animals of the Whispering Wood.

They used physical theatre and freeze frames and also displayed some great stage whispering! They then recorded the thoughts and sayings in their books.

The children are really enjoying this book and can't wait to find out more!
