Our Drama inquiry week 6

In our drama inquiry we are trying to work out what the basic elements of drama are. We have been looking at different sorts of drama, and watching mime movies on the Internet.
We watched the Balloon mime. It had facial expression, acting and the actor was experienced.
We also watched Jonny Depps hat.We reckoned it had good acting and it was
funny.
We've also had 2 more movies that we watched on the video player. They
were Pheobes story (from Keeping ourselves safe) that had brilliant facial expression, and this was a story that was giving information.
The best movie was Peter and the Wolf. It was a ballet, with good settings and costumes. That's as much so far as we know about drama.

INQUIRY

Our inquiry for the rest of this term is about drama.
At the moment we are asking ourselves, "What is drama?" and we are trying to come up with a definition.
Here is a Wordle of our first ideas.

Self Portraits

Term 3

In Keeping Ourselves Safe this term we learned some strategies for dealing with difficult situations, and we also talked about how to take care of others. Some of the class looked after eggs for a week, and we decided that most of us must be good caregivers because there were only a few casualties! There were some excellent egg-diaries written.
