Children's play write up.
We were divided into groups and performed the mock children's play we had rehearsed, we performed the Sophie The Spoilt Fairy to the class and received the feedback suggesting we needed more exaggerated facial expression, we needed to work more on each character and try to include the moral a little bit more clearly.

We then got into groups again and began to plan our proper childrens play, we took the advice presented by the class into consideration. We each presented our stimuli that had not been presented in class and discussed from then. Most of the class had already shared their ideas. My idea was a story called "The King Who Cancelled Christmas" the group said that they liked my idea and decided to form the children's play around that, but changing the characters to animals to make the play more child friendly and slightly less complex as the original story was aimed at older children.

We re-invented the characters at animals and came up with some basics about each character and came up with the following:
Bear - Big, scary, grumpy, lonely.
Mouse - Tiny, brave, timid, squeaky.
Owl - Wise, smart, old, leader mentality.
Frogs - Clumsy, funny, argumentative.
Rabbit - Jumpy, scared, timid, shy.
