7th June 2011

This weeks lesson were simple.
We started a new stimulus which will upgrade our marks and even if the students in my class were at a pass they would be able to get higher marks and also get be able to improve on other stuff such as group work, voice projection and other skills.

Each group of 3 chose a envelope which had a different stimulus in it. It could of consisted of images, writing, newspaper cut outs and information about a different topic.
In my group were Georgee and Shakelun and our stimulus was to do with a piece of writing, a story. About a girl called Matilda who lived with her aunt and always lied about stuff. She rang out for an emergency fire brigade while her aunt was out and there wasn't even any fire. They came and there was non. So the fire brigade left, then there started a real fire which blazed and she cried for help but neighbours did not believe her. Her aunt had come back and the house was burning while Matilda was still inside burning with it.

In our group we discussed ideas about what to create a performance, inspiring from the piece of writing. We all decided on a family of 2 sisters and a mother. One of the sisters always lied (Stephanii) about things the other sister did (Bonnie) when she actually didn't. One day Stephanii blamed Bonnie on dumping her own boyfriend on purpose, yet the mother didn't believe her of course. Then the mother realized and saw a text on Bonnie's phone. Stephanii got a phonecall and the mother over heard and realized, then Bonnie was punished by being grounded for a year and Stephanii got all of Bonnie's pocket money.

Bonnie still persisted and still denied it although she had a smirk on her face the whole time.
These stimuluses also give morals and its a very good way to put the ideas across.

In the second half of the lesson we went to the computer room to complete parts of the checklist we were obeyed to complete for the 1st of July.
