Scripted performance: Goldilocks and the Three Bears

Summary of task

Students studied and reinterpreted the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears in an integrated unit that involved English and The Arts. They participated in a process of playbuilding, in which they learned about Edward De Bono’s Six Thinking Hats, and used that information to structure their drama into sequences that represented the intention of each ‘hat’.

Their performances were completed in small groups during the unit of work and were presented to the school and its community at the end of term.
