Guest Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 HI all, Really need some ideas for our whole school Shakespeare week! As a reception we have been given the book the Tempest to work with. Any ideas for a fun filled week would be greatly appreciated that can be linked to different areas of learning would be great. Many thanks :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_30147 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Long long time since I read it but I'd be tempted to set up a ship wreck as your role play and then follow the children's lead. A treasure chest, message in a bottle, letters buried in the sand etc, making maps, make rain shakers and do lots of storm dancing! Good luck x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_55052 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Good luck this is a hard task with such young children. Making a ship with shapes. Talking about being a bully-(father) Role play desert island and ship. P.E warm up (climb the rigging, scrub the decks, rocking there's a storm etc) Planning a wedding(invites etc) Talking about Italy, food tasting etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
