Excite your students with a relevant learning experience outside the classroom designed to meet KS2, KS3, KS4 and KS5 learning objectives and outcomes in a fun and interactive way. Set within an age-appropriate environment, our workshops are taught by fully qualified, award winning teachers with engaging English lessons and teaching resources.
ENGLISH LESSONS
CREATING CREATURES – KS2, KS3
Students will analyse features of creature descriptions in the Harry Potter books and will learn how some of the magical creatures were brought to life in the Harry Potter film series, from animatronics to CGI. Students will then invent their own magical creatures.
PITCHING – KS2, KS3, KS4, KS5
Students will be encouraged to come up with their own original idea for a film and condense it into a pitch of 25 words or less, which would sell it to a film executive.
INSTRUCTIONAL WRITING – KS2
Students will get the chance to examine authentic artefacts from the film series before using these to devise their own game and instructions.
SCREENPLAY STORIES – KS2, KS3
Students will have the opportunity to study the key conventions of story writing and discover how writers use the written word to convey visual representations and narrative in a screenplay.
