A play with a message
A play is a story that we act. Each character says words. A play can send a message. In a shop play the message is: be polite and say please and thank you. In another play, four friends see litter in the park. They say, “Let us help!” They make a poster, pick up the litter with gloves and put it in the bin. The message is: look after our park. To write a play, we choose the characters, the place and what each one says. Then we practise and act it.
Good morning! Two tomatoes, please.
Here you are.
Thank you!
Our play: with friends or family, act the park play. One of you is Seif, one is Mariam, one is Karim and one is Jana. Make a poster that says “Keep our park clean”, and draw a bin and a smile. Then make up your own short play about helping at home.
