Well done on an excellent session.

You should have two reflections by Monday. Please make sure you are keeping up to date with your work.

For the session on Friday you should make sure that you cut-and-paste the below information or type your own. You should make sure you reflect on the game that you led and all the games you supported. You should make some notes about what you discovered about the group that we are working with. Were you surprised by the engagement of the group, what things are you concerned about, what things do you hope that we can do over the next few weeks.

 aims of the project - on paper and in the envelopes...write one, two or three things you hope

to get out of the project here. We will read them on the 12th July and see if we have met those aims. 

Chat briefly about the Arts Award.

Tour of the school and meet back outside at 12.45/1pm.

Why did we do these games?

How did the games encourage group work?

How did the client group respond to the games?

If you led the game what did you learn about how you had to do this?

If you are supporting the games what did

you learn about your role as a supporter?

You should also make some notes of ideas that you have for the final performance to be performed on 12th July.

In addition to the reflections on the lessons you should also be researching two community group. There are some examples of community groups in the pack that you were given last week, you should make sure that you research the history of the community group, their aims and objectives,  ethos. All of these things you are marked on as part of this assignment.

In your packs last week you were given an article about Augusto Boal, you need to ensure that you've annotated this and referenced it on your blog, you could do this by taking a photograph and uploading, or scanning this to your blog.

Remember you need to do extra reading, you need to do action planning, those people going above and beyond and immersing themselves in community theatre are those that are going to get distinctions.
