These lessons are based on Charles Causley’s poem, ‘What Has Happened to Lulu?’. The six stanzas of the poem contain questions that a young child is asking their mother about the disappearance of their older sister and the sounds they heard during the night. The reader is left not knowing what has happened to Lulu, or why she has left home, where she is now or who is with her.
This scheme of work will explore the poem through drama, showing how it can be used as a stimulus for devising. Each lesson will provide students with some opportunities to fill in creatively some of the narrative gaps together. The scheme is planned flexibly so that teachers can decide either to work through.
