6C... Another aspect

I have been fascinated by how quickly a little girl from Romania has settled into the Nursery Class where I was previously working before Pantomime began. With no English she thoroughly enjoyed playing in the role play area and often gestured for me to join in with her. As a Drama student I then pick up from her non- verbal cues and participate in a story of Cinderella or sweeping the house. As I acted alongside her I was aware that I verbalise our story and she was quickly picking up the language alongside the actions. I loved it! Last week, before I moved away she said, ‘Miss Thorpe, come. Eat’ and she ordered me to eat the pretend food she had made. I then said, ‘Yum, delicious.’ She then repeated this and replied,’ you like?’ Amazing!!! 

That time of the year again... Oh no it's not!!

So... I have been very busy moving and settling in as it is Pantomime time again! I have relocated to Glasgow and will be performing in the production of, "Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs" over Christmas.

So far it is great fun. But, now I have got my bearings I can concentrate on getting some work done :)
