The Teacher Toolbox

I have become very fond of using puppets as an introduction to movie making. The students have to organise the creation of their puppets, they have to write the  script, learn the camera, explore the software, resolve conflict, discuss production values, entertain, etc, etc.

Here is a rather open ended task that you are welcome to have a go at.

‘In groups of three you must create a 2 minute video to showcase to the world how intelligent, articulate and creative you are. The video must not be contrary to school ethos and you are only able to use puppets. What will you do?’

NB This is a repost of an earlier article as I’ve been experiencing some difficulty streaming from Teacher Tube.

Yep, been updating the science part of the site again today. Here is a great air pressure reader’s theatre script that is easy for a small group of students to present to your class as well as other classes around the school.

Science plays are a nice way to raise the profile of science around your school.

Enjoy the Air Pressure Science Experiment
