WORKSHOP ADVANCE PREPARATION

Click here to print yourself a copy of the lyrics

Things you must do in advance (ie this week):
1. watch the video and get as familiar as possible with the section we are remaking
2. Look through the post on character roles and have a think about which part you would like to play
3. See Miss B to get your name on the list for the various roles. Come and have a chat about what role you could play - I have been thinking about this a lot over the last few weeks!
4. Have a good look at the dress codes of all the characters and start bringing in items - YOU will need to supply all costumes so beg, borrow and steal and get creative! Check the costumes post as well.
5. Look closely at the video to spot the props we will need and start organising who is going to bring what. Check the props list too on a separate posting.
6. Learnt the lyrics off by heart!
6. Start practicing your performance - we will need perfection on the guitar playing, drumming, movements and gestures, action codes etc

Miss B has started a costumes and props box in the media office so bring stuff in this week!

MANAGING YOUR INDIVIDUAL PROGRESS

We will be looking at your individual blogs and recording comments/ setting targets and assessing progress as we go along. Please ensure you are posting regularly as we can only comment on actual evidence provided.

During the summer term, each student will be allocated to a teacher who will oversee their research and blog. Feedback will be in the form of comments, targets, assessment of progress and regular 1 to 1 chats. We hope this will help you focus your research,and get the best possible marks!

If you are not sure what you are doing on your blog, please see all the earlier posts for guidance
