If you have made a set of characters from card (see last week’s posts), you are all set to create a drama. You can make a simple theatre (more card) and even some scenery to slot down as a background. Add strips of card to your characters so you can move them on and off the stage.
Now write your script. You can write it alone, or it may be more fun to write it with a friend. You can share the characters between you.
Here’s how to lay out a script:
Scene: a garden with soil and flowers.
Early Bird: Well, good morning, Worm!
Worm: Uh, oh, what are you doing down among the flowers so early?
Early Bird: I am out looking for you.
This is an activity that you could do on your own or with a partner.
