  • Becky -  little book of fairy tales
Ugly duckling

  • James - Christmas carols

AI - audience help their lines

We then got into smaller groups and talked about what we would like to do for Childrens play, discussing any ideas that had not yet been used.

I put my idea forward which was the story of The King Who Cancelled Christmas, and we decided, to make it more for children, to make the characters animals, and instead of a King, we'd have a Bear who was lonely because everyone was scared of him, so he wanted to cancel Christmas because he couldn't enjoy it. The story is the rest of the animals trying to convince the bear to have Christmas again, but they are all too scared to say anything, but the mouse, the smallest of them all, is the bravest, and finds out that the bear is lonely, not scary or mean.

We will start to plan in more detail next lesson.
