This Rock n Roll Class Play/Assembly is one of a *set written by me (Sue Russell). It covers all the areas of work the children will have done in class (the different characteristics of rocks and their different uses; the definition of permeable and impermeable, sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic). Ideal for Years/Grades 3 - 8, and parts for all abilities. This curriculum-based play is fun but informative - guaranteed to be enjoyed by children and adults alike! This play is typical of all my plays - "written by a teacher, for teachers" with seating plan included - easy to deliver, and fun to perform. Take out the stress from drama and enjoy!
*This set is a collection written on the science curriculum (this one based on Unit 3D Rocks and Soils taken from the UK QCA documents Science curriculum for Key Stage II). I have also written a play on Our Planet which explores man’s impact on our environment – on 5 different habitats and what we can do to reverse the harm we have done.
I have written plays for other subjects such as history , geography, PSHCE (Citizenship Skills) and one-offs like Valentines and St. Patrick's Day. These can all be viewed on my website www.plays-r-ussell.com which has a complete listing of my material under UK and USA catalogs.
In addition to these 'large cast, plays for performance' I have produced a set of Group Readers which are for groups of 6 children, written in sets of 5, complete with quizzes. These are a great in-classroom resource, for guided reading or 'mini performances'. Again, these can be seen on my website www.plays-r-ussell.com

I taught in the U.K. for 15 years - temporary and permanent positions plus supply/substitute teaching. I taught all year groups at primary/elementary level and have done some substitute teaching since arriving in the USA. My degree was in History so I always particularly enjoyed teaching this subject, and creating class plays/assemblies around what I was teaching in the classroom - whether it be Ancient Egyptians or King Henry VIII and his Six Wives!
