L3 Drama - Semester B
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr S. Lunt
Level 3 Drama: Shut Up and Act!
Drama at its core inspires the love of exploring imagination physically. Drama helps to create confident, adaptable team players. It enables creative thinking in all aspects of a student’s life at Kaipara and beyond. At Level Three, Drama continues to develop and hone the skills students have been using in Level Two Drama. It also continues to grow students confidence in performing towards their future after Kaipara.
Semester A focused on the influences of theatre and how it can inspire students own original drama. Semester B continues to use these skills and learning to perform more sustained and in-depth characterisation.
Semester B standards taught:
Achievement Standard 3.1 - Interpret scripted text to integrate drama techniques in performance.
Students hone acting techniques and gain confidence in shorter scenes in the lead up to the production standard.
Achievement Standard 3.6 - Perform a substantial acting role in a significant production.
The course culminates in a full production where students have the opportunity to realise more sustained and in-depth characterisation.
