Last Friday, P5/6 worked on a passage about the Braer oil disaster which occurred in January 1993. We were concentrating on trying to write fluently and quickly, as well as finding out a bit about what actually happened.
This led us nicely into drama, where we set out in small groups to discuss how we could recreate the disaster through mime alone, without using any words!
Finally we gave a demonstration of each group’s work to the class.
-
- Before the ship runs aground, the crew sleep!
-
- What’s happening?
-
- Goodness, that sea is rough!
-
- Is that water coming in?
-
- Are you OK?
-
- I’m trying desperately to control the ship here, but it’s no use!
-
- Help!
-
- Hang on!
-
- Are you OK? Can you phone for help?
-
- Can anyone hear us? We are adrift, losing power fast!
-
- Oh no, she’s hurt!
-
- Is that a helicopter?
-
- We’re over here! Help!
-
- I’m still trying to get through to someone!
-
- Hang on- this is getting really serious!
-
- The crew are injured!
-
- Will we ever get out of this?
-
- These seas are mountainous!
