Well structured document that can be used to plan an individual lesson or to develop with other material into a structured course. If I was using the document to plan course work a wider range of warm-up activities would have proved helpful. Overall this is an accessible guide for those who need inspiration or guidance in pitching drama activities for this age group that will engage and inspire. I have tried some of these activities with a younger age group and they have found the material interesting with minimal tweeking. Overall worth getting. Especially as chalkface allows immediate downloads. More please for this age group!
