Subject: EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITY- DRAMA CLUB PLAY: THE HARE AND THE TORTOISE retold by Jenny Dooley & Chris Bates Grade: III C Learning Outcomes By the end of these lessons learners will be able to:  explore how theatre is the art of telling stories through live acting.  develop tolerance and empathy.  actively learn.  learn to work together, build trust, and involve every member in a performance.  explore how pantomime and behavior help tell a story.  explore what makes characters unique and how to create characters onstage.  think about the “why” behind every action.  understand the importance of articulation, projection and voice variation.  understand how being present, listening and reacting are an important part of being an actor.  consolidate grammatical structures through context.  acquire new vocabulary and reinforce words already known.  develop the reading habit as a means of acquiring information.  foster the pleasure of reading and autonomy in learning.

Assessment Teacher, peer- and self-assessment processes will be used - Create with students a rubric or scoring guide identifying standards for a successful performance. It includes fluency, volume, positioning, characterization, attitude, pronunciation. -Ask the class, “What did they do well?”-“What do they need to work on?” The audience will provide feedback -teacher assessment- Give feedback on what the children have done, not only the end product and language but also the process they went through, the way they cooperated with each other, and how they came to decisions

Procedure Activity 1 • On the board write up the title „The hare and the tortoise‟ and brainstorm as much as your students know on this topic (limit the brainstorm to about 5 minutes to keep the pace up). • Then ask the students to read the play „The hare and the tortoise‟. • Put the students in pairs and get them to play roles. • Ask the students to read the text again and then to answer the true/false questions • Put the students in pairs and ask them to compare their answers. • Next, collate and discuss the answers. • Then, put students into small groups and ask them to discuss the questions, using their imagination as much as possible. • Finally, ask students for their ideas & discuss them. Activity 2 Ask the students to act the play. Each student acts a character. Aids - CLIL lesson worksheets - video projector - masks and costumes Scaffolding Strategies -Give students a list of words you want them to know or to review. -Take any word, sentence, or short dialogue (two to four lines) and ask children to practise saying it “in character.” -Total Physical Response (TPR) activities are an excellent way to introduce dramatization: have children respond to language with their bodies, a first step to miming and acting. Help children realize that they can say things in different ways: loudly, quietly, angrily, sadly. (It‟s a good way to explore the power of their voices.) Choose one word and say it in different ways. - Miming practise Students learn gestures to go with words that are repeated in the story. - Next have the children choose words and practise saying them in many different ways. -Reading aloud of each part

Hieroglyphs The Ancient Egyptians thought that it was important to write things down. However, they didn’t use an alphabet • Challenge students’ perceptions about the like the one used in English, they used something called world and about themselves Hieroglyphs. Hieroglyphs are pictures or symbols that represent words. For centuries, the meaning of these mysterious symbols was lost. Then, in 1799, the • Encourage students to speak in public. discovery of the ‘Rosetta Stone’ helped archaeologists to learn how to read hieroglyphics. • Positive, confident self-image. Pharaohs The rulers of Ancient Egypt were called pharaohs. They were thought to be the representative of the Gods on Earth and, as such, they had absolute power. One of the most famous was Tutankhamen, the boy king. When his tomb was discovered in 1922 a curse was found on the entrance to the tomb. Six weeks later Lord Carnarvon, the man who paid for the excavation, died. Another pharaoh that many people have heard about is Ramesses II who ruled for 67 years. One of his queens


was Nefertari who was buried in the Valley of the Queens at Luxor. Gods and Goddesses The Ancient Egyptians believed in many different gods and goddesses with each one having a particular role. So, for example, Ra was the sun god and was the most important god. He was drawn as a man with the head of a hawk and a sun disc as a headdress. The Egyptians thought that he was swallowed every night by the sky goddess Nut and then born again every morning. Anubis was the god of the dead. He was drawn as a man with the head of jackal. Priests often wore jackal masks when a person died.

Procedures THE THEME OF THE PROJECT Reproduce at a convenient scale the Solar System on a rope For best performance you must: - Describe the Solar System in a few words - Register the distances between each planet and the Sun and the radius of each planet These numbers should be as close to reality as possible; - Approximate and round data for easy calculation; - Measure the length of the corridor at the first floor in our school and establish a convenient scale for your model; - Using proportions, calculate the distance between the planets and the Sun on your model and the radius of the disks representing the planets; - Cut disks of cardboard and color them to look like real planets; - Hang the disks at the proper distances on the rope using laundry hooks; - Begin your virtual journey in the Solar System.

The project description


“Sfântul Vasileâ€? School Students, organized in crews, 8-9, must produce a short description of the Solar System's characteristics of distance and planets. Then, taking the distance Sun-Neptune as the standard, they will calculate, using proportions, the distances to the Sun on a scale for all planets of the Solar System. The final product - on a "rope", the positions of the eight planets (the length of the rope must not exceed the length of the corridor on the first floor of the school, so that it can be displayed on the day the project is finalized). The crews will also manufacture disks representing the planets of the Solar System. To get a special note, each crew will have a "space" name, chosen by the team. Students in a crew will choose different roles for each of them (a Pilot, a Navigator, a Scientist, a Specialist and so on). We have already appointed Crew Commanders, two boys and two girls, and divided the class into four equally balanced crews from a gender perspective. Lesson 1 The teacher explains to students the theme of the project. Students gather in teams; they choose a commander and distribute their roles. Each team will have a "spatial" name. The teacher presents the calendar of activities and the deadlines for each stage. Lesson 2 Each group searches for information about the solar system and writes in a table for each planet the distance from the Sun (in km) and the radius (in km). Lesson 3 Each group develops a brief description of the solar system. Each group approximates and rounds every distance and radius of the planet and transcribes it into a table. Each group starts making the team's portfolio for this project - transcribes the tables, draws illustrations, finds ways to represent the results in original ways. Lesson 4 Teams acquire the materials needed to make the final product. Cuts off the discs that will be the planets. Measure the distances represented on scale on the rope. Color the planets' discs.

Preparation 

Arrange students into groups, and distribute the written sentences

Have students draw a picture to go with their group's sentence.

Procedure How do we create a good presentation? Introduction to class mini project Teacher writes several key words on the whiteboard and instructs pupils to search for them on the Internet BULLET SLIDE TEMPLATE LAYOUT Teacher engages pupils in a conversation- what is each of these and are there words in their mother tongue for these or do they use English words. Do they use power point presentations for school? Do their teachers use them? If they would hold a 10 minute presentation- what would be the optimal number of slides. 

When the illustrations are complete, work with students in groups to complete the computer portion of the project. Plan to spend about 10 to 15 minutes per group.

Explain to students that they are going to make slides for a presentation. Have them practice reading their sentences aloud four or five times. Encourage them to touch each word as they read.

Point out that the first word begins with a capital letter. Explain that a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence signals a new thought. Show them how to make a capital letter on the keyboard.

Point out that spaces separate words and make them easier to read. Show them how to make a space on the keyboard.

Point out the period at the end of the sentence. Tell students the period shows that a thought is complete. Show them how to make a period on the keyboard.

Divide the number of words in each sentence as evenly as possible among the students in the 4


Școala Gimnazială Sf. Vasile, Ploiești, Romania Teacher : Daniela Ionescu

group, and assign each student about the same number of words. 

Have the first student type his or her words and read them aloud. Then have the second student type and read the next group of words. Continue until students in the group have typed their entire sentence. As students type their words, have them add their names or initials at the bottom of the slide.

After the sentence has been typed, have students practice reading it together several times. Then have them record the sentence to add to the presentation. Explain that they should read their words clearly, so everyone can hear and understand it.

Show students the slide they have made. Explain that the slide needs background color. Using the background setting, have each student choose his or her favorite color. Blend the colors using the gradient setting.

Show students what the slide looks like. Explain that you will scan the drawings and put them into the presentation. If you have a scanner at school, students can help scan the pictures.
