The Paradise Garden: Drama and storytelling BTEC Level 3 using a similar working techniqueThis scheme of work is based upon The Paradise Garden by Colin Thompson a highly imaginative childrens story. Through vivid illustrations and descriptive text, it follows a young boy on his quest for inner peace to an exotic garden to seek solace and gain independence. The activities are mainly targeted towards students who have limited experience of drama as an art form, and little prior sense of how to communicate using different drama conventions.
