SHAKESPEARE WEEK - GOING DOWN A STORM!

Derek Oliver • February 21, 2018

Diary of a drama teacher...

We're acting out the opening scene of The Tempest in classes this week - and I just couldn't resist the pun, sorry! What's wonderful is that so many children remember loving Shakespeare week last year and are so excited about doing a new play this year. The shipwreck is especially dramatic and it makes my day when someone says 'Can we do it again?' at the end.
