The Second Video Conference

Stories for Miss Bain's Class 2

Today the children from Scargill and Parkhill had another video conference. The Year 6 Parkhill story tellers read to the children in Miss Bain's Class 2.

The children in Class 2 were another wonderful audience who sat and listened carefully and then asked some very difficult questions about the story ideas and the characters used. Class 2 then completely took the story tellers by surprise and asked if they could act out one of the stories in a mime! After a bit of quick thinking the Parkhill children managed to do a quick mime for the Cinderella story, which caused a lot of laughter all round!

The stories read today were:-

Cinderella - Where the character of Cinderella was not very nice and was unkind to her stepmother.

The Hare and the Tortoise - Where the main characters were two cars, a Ferrari and a Nissan!

Charades

After the stories it was again time for the charades and Class 2 presented two wonderful mimes complete with masks and props. These were an added bonus as they really helped the Parkhill children to guess the nursery rhyme and story that they mimed.

Working together has been a fantastic experience and I know that everyone has really enjoyed these video conference sessions. There has been much activity in the Blog comments, where the children and staff have been able to leave messages about this experience.

We are now looking forward to working together again in the future.
