E30’s Powerful Work on Macbeth
As part of E30’s expedition ‘Fight the Power’ they are grappling with the anchor text, Macbeth. Me and Mr Portman have been blown away by every single students’ engagement, effort and focus so far. Our Friday session 5 drama sessions are quickly becoming the highlight of our week.
Not only this but their analysis work, interpretation of key scenes and characters and book work is beautiful. They are really embodying XPE’s HOWLs in their lessons. Keep working hard, getting smart and being kind guys.
See a sneak peak below of some of our thespians in action. Get ready for the POL! Details of which will be sent out asap.
Thank you for making our week – Mrs Desborough and Mr Portman
