Let's Talk About Sex was devised directly from work led by the author with female students in a Year 10 GCSE Drama workshop. The students wanted to produce a play that reflected their own lives and concerns about sex, alcohol and growing up. The students wanted to use a range of theatre techniques to tell a strong dramatic story, while giving facts and information to help young women like them make choices about their lives. They felt that sex education lessons did not prepare them well enough, and wanted to use theatre to offer an alternative view. The result is an emotional, frank piece of documentary theatre drawing on the students' own experiences and including up-to-date information on teenage pregnancy, alcohol use, contraception and STIs. The piece is presented in a fast-paced, multi-role style suitable for actors aged 14-18. It can be performed as a scripted piece for performance examinations for AQA GCSE Drama or as a TIE performance. The play can also be used for group reading and discussion in sex education lessons. Suggested topics for discussion are included.

Let's Talk About Sex uses split-scene staging and can be produced with simple props and costumes in the average school hall or Drama space. The play offers opportunities for Drama students to explore techniques including Multi-Role, Physical Theatre, Mime, Freeze, Monologue, Thought-In-The-Head, Choral speaking, Direct Address and the Brechtian use of signs and projection.

£35.24


Subject: Citizenship
Level: Secondary
Age Group: 11 - 14
Order Number: 3038

This pack looks at the issues of rights and responsibilities initially from the viewpoint of the pupil. It then develops the topic by exploring the local, national and ultimately international contexts of children's rights and responsibilities. Finally, it looks briefly at human rights in general.

The pack is divided into four sections each preceded by a teacher's page, which offers a summary of the section, useful websites where relevant, extension exercises and additional facts to be used at the teacher's discretion. Each section is a follow-up from the previous one, with the aim of extending pupil's knowledge and awareness of wider issues. Nevertheless, the pack is designed for flexible use and individual worksheets or sections can be used without having to use the whole pack.

The pack can be used for 11-14 years old. There is a variety of activities: Comprehension exercises, puzzles, quizzes, sorting and categorising exercises, tables to fill in, poster and pamphlet making, discussions, class presentations, writing newspaper articles and letters and extended paragraphs. Some of the text and the exercises are differentiated and extension tasks are offered. Most activities can be done individually and in writing, but they can also be used for group activities and debates.
