Lecturer: Gavin Maxwell
Lesson One

We began by doing a focusing warm-up. We stood in a circle and gave each person an animal repeated them over and over again, trying to follow the same pattern, while beanbags were being thrown.
I found this difficult, as I couldn't remember the two patterns at the same time. I think it would take a lot of practice to get better.

We then continued exploring story telling. We were given a poem by Tim Burton called The Melencoly Death of Oisterboy and then given the task of acting it out in small groups.

It was successful, but a little messy. If we had more time, we probably could've made it more presentable.
I completely participated in this exercise, contributing ideas and helping with staging and spoke my lines without a script.
I think my target for future lessons is to continue doing this.
