Schemes of work

Danny the Champion of the World

This scheme of work is based on the play script of Danny the Champion of the World adapted by David Wood from Roald Dahl’s novel. The play is divided into nine mini-plays that can be stand-alone performances or put together to tell the whole story. This text is best suited for Years 7 and 8, although some of the themes and issues raised would still be pertinent for Year 9. This scheme uses on- and off-text work, devising, improvisation and design skills to explore what happens in some of the mini-plays, and explore some of the themes raised.
