4 lessons adapting the famous story by Oscar Wilde.
A Giant bans some children from his wonderful garden and the tragic consequences in time come to haunt him. This lesson uses narration and improvisation, teacher in role technique, tableau,suggested use of music and pauses for reflection throughout. Enchanting story and very suitable for presentation.
This is a lovely adaptation of the famous story by Oscar Wilde. It is suitable for around age 6 up and works very well with a mixed age group.
The 4 lessons combine movement and mime, improvisation, turn-taking, characterisation and role-play. Music suggestions given.
The story is quite haunting and can be easily used with older students at a deeper level although even younger children can display surprisingly profound connections with it.
