Drama for Communication in Keystage One
"For 1.7 million children in the UK, learning to talk and understand words feels like an impossible hurdle."
Bounce is a theatre partner in Speech Bubbles, a national programme supporting children who find communication challenging.
Keystage One Programme
Speech Bubbles is for children aged 5-7 who find it difficult to develop the speech, language and communication skills they need for life. The weekly drama programme takes place in school time. It offers children an opportunity to have fun telling stories and acting them out. In doing so they are supported to gain confidence and develop their physical and verbal communication skills.
We deliver Speech Bubbles for primary schools in Wandsworth.
CPD for Teachers
Drama Tools for Great Communication is a 1.5 hour CPD from Speech Bubbles. It is full of fresh ideas to support and strengthen communication in your classroom. Bounce is able to deliver a number of funded Insets for schools in Wandsworth. Comments from other Wandsworth teachers include ‘One of the best staff insets we’ve had. Really lifted the spirits and super useful’ and ‘The topics covered were very relevant to my class. Objectives were clear and perfectly pitched.’
