Year 7 have been working hard in their English lessons learning about the Bard himself, William Shakespeare. Our youngest scholars have been studying The Tempest, a tale of Prospero and his daughter Miranda as they react to a terrible shipwreck. As the sailor and courtiers aboard the ship begin to wash up on their island home, everything is not all as it seems...

Our outstanding work covers character development, examining the effectiveness of setting and predictions about the story. Ruben made insightful predictions about the characters and story reviewing The Tempest book covers and artwork.
Ayaan did some lovely work on his first impressions of both Miranda and Prospero after Act I, Scene II when they are first introduced. Even more importantly, he reviewed the feedback he received from Mr Rauf and made his work even better with his green pen activity. Well done Ayaan!
Finally, Bardia used some explicit exciting vocabulary, describing Act I Scene I as an "explosive opening", the play starts with "big problems" that will entice the audience to want to watch the rest!
