Reflection Drama Lesson
Today we started two warmups. The first one was when we were sitting in a big circle and two people started. One acted and the other person went with it then if miss U said "Freeze" or a class mate. Then the two people would have to freeze and a person in the circle could stand up and pat the person who was in the circle the longest. They would have to go sit down and the person who patted the person would have to memorise the pose and do the exact pose that the person did.Then the person who is new in the scene and the other person would have to memorise. Today was great Fun!!

Our 3rd last lesson of Drama :(

Today we came in and we were told to put on one coloured clothes because we were going to film with a green screen. After we all were in a circle then we played the bean bag game :) After that the four groups went into different rooms. I was in a group with Max- a time traveller , Leva - a gothic girl, Tom - the turtle and me the witch. All of the groups could practice there plays, our group put on a play that was about that Max, Leva and me were all bank robbers and  tom the turtle had to stop us from getting the money. I was very excited if we would explain and represent our stereo types well. I think our play was good and I liked that we could just make a play that actually does something. I think that our play was super fun to do and I am hope that our play gets a good grade.
Here are some stereo types and renaissance:

A Drama Lesson with paintings and costumes.

Today we came in our class rooms and the whole class room was filled with paintings of different costumes. Some made me feel happy some made me feel sad. In mostly every picture you could see the texture it should be. With some picture he even put a bit of material that the drawing is supposed to look like and you could see that it was very similar. One of our helpers in our drama lessons is a costume designer. He would go to plays and they would ask him to make the costumes and then he would talk about the costume and what he thinks would look good with the actor. After he told us what he was doing as a living and what it actually is, miss U told us to gather around and she explained that we were aloud to choose our costumes and props by drawing and sketching them and writing about what our sizes and height. We also had to fill in a paper about if your costume was totally black than what is the prop you would be using to identify yourself. And now we are writing our reflections. I am so excited, because we are getting the costumes on Thursday:)
