Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify and describe how different puppets can be used to tell and perform a story and a worksheet to practise performing a play script to show how some of the characters might act in a Punch and Judy story.

The interactive presentation can be used to explore some of the different characters that can be used as puppets to tell and perform a narrative story.

This lesson is part of a design technology scheme of work to get the children to select, shape and combine textile and other materials to make a range of puppet characters that can be used to narrate a traditional story. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
