Content

  • Henry IV Part One

    This will be Block 1 of 2.

    “By heaven, methinks it were an easy leap
    To pluck bright honour from the pale-faced moon.
    Or dive into the bottom of the deep Where fathom line could never touch the ground.
    And pluck up drowned honour by the locks.”

    These are troubled times for King Henry. His son, Prince Harry, acts more like a rogue than royalty, keeping company with drunken highway robber Falstaff as well as other shady characters. Meanwhile, from the north come rumours of a rebellion led by the son of the Percy family, the valiant Hotspur. An effortless mix of history and comedy, moving from scenes of royalty to rough drinking dens.

  • This play consists of five Acts and in order to be able to cover as much of it as possible, we are covering it over two blocks with a total of ten sessions, with a mixture of film clips, script reading and discussion about language, themes and characters.

    The script is freely available online.

    NOTE: This is Block 1 of 2.

    Course Objective:

    To study the language, structure, plot and characters in a Shakespeare play.

“We have been taking part in the BSL lessons and the other day had great fun finger spelling while shopping. Two of my children have dyslexia with T being more severe, he hates and refuses spellings. Along comes BSL and he’s loving spellings!” ”

Holly, Parent

“Our family are full time travellers and the hub is a life line for us. The children get to see and speak to adults who show a real interest in their learning and their lives. They get to pick lessons that they are interested in and have fun learning something new. The social hub was a real life line for us too. My 3 have made friends and love getting to chat to children and adults daily too. ”

Donna, Parent

“I can’t thank you enough for starting this group Amy. You gave me back my happy (not so little anymore) boy. Thanks to this group he’s realised he’s not the stupid, naughty kid that school made him believe he was. His sister is on school holidays and he’s doing recorded lessons by choice. Xxxx ”
