Drama MYP Grade 10

In our last drama class we looked at the first world problems, to create an extract (in groups of 4) about contrasting lives between the rich and the poor. We used the technique of cross-cutting (two or more scenes are shown together: split screen) to show relevant contrasts from time to time.  We first watched a video, showing a substantially poor area where labors of Dubai lived, after working in terrible conditions at construction sites.  Later on we were put into a group of 4 and we were asked to give two situations where the dialogue is the same, however the scenes (2) are polar opposites. For Example: An elite family in their living room feeling cold due to a low AC temperature, and next to this a scene at a local ally where construction workers are sleeping on the floor without blankets, feeling cold.  1) Give an example of one of the lines that your group chose to say in unison to show a connection between the rich and poor characters.  ...

In the game we were put into a pair, and in the pair we had to demonstrate 2 roles (navigator and follower). The navigator's role was to navigate the follower through obstacles (set by our teacher, in order to make the game more interesting) and other people, to take the follower through the safe route.  Through this game activity we built self confidence, and developed better trust bonds with our partner. This 'skill' of trust is essential in drama because you are able to rely and have faith in your partner during a course work. This activity made us have a stronger bond and relationship, because we were able to put our trust into someone else's hands. After the activity we had a better communication skill, as we were able to control and navigate our pair without actually seeing the route (since the follower had their eyes closed).
