Our assembly. Introducing Jim the head louse!
Our first classroom novel was such a hit we decided to turn it into a play.
The novel is called 'Niteracy Hour', by John Dougherty.
During our literacy hour each day, we took turns writing each scene.
Here is Jim the Louse!
(Amiri Kombo)
The play is about a head louse called 'Jim'. Head hatches on the head of a boy called Gregory in the middle of a literacy lesson at school. Hence the title of the book 'Niteracy hour'. He then becomes friends with Gregory's friends, and together they give the biggest bully in the school some of his own medicine.
It took us two weeks and a lot of rehearsing, but it was well worth it!
We preformed our play to some Secondary classes, then finally to the Early Year classes and all of the Primary School.
At this moment all the children in the playground (with the help of Jim the head louse) decided it was payback time for the big bully Duncan...
Pretending to be zombies and scarying him out of the school!!
