Year 3 have loved reading the story ‘The Twits’ by Roald Dahl. We also looked at a version of the story that had been adapted into a play script. We chose our favourite chapter from the Twits story and wrote it up as a play script.

After that we worked in  groups to act it out, one member of each group took on the role of the narrator while the other two had the less fortunate job of playing the disgusting Mr. and Mrs. Twit.

When we had finished rehearsing our version of the scene, we then had to perform to an audience of our classmates. We were given a Success Criteria of being able to speak clearly, be as expressive as possible, engage with our audience while trying not to read from our script too much. The final results, given the fact this was our first attempt, were fantastic! There are some definite future acting talents in year 3!
