Roll a dice to discover how angry you are.
Plan and write an angry email to the chairperson demanding a transfer
Deliver the email at a Press Conference to your class.

For larger groups split the class into Player, Media, Agents, Chairperson. Each will have their own motivation and agenda.

Skills targeted. Planning. Writing to persuade. Oracy and literacy Skills. Speech and Language. Building confidence with public speaking. Use of statistics.

The aim of this lesson is to encourage students to build literacy and oracy skills in a fun and non-pressurised way. Using the dice to gauge how angry they are takes away the pressure of choice and is particularly good for engaging avoidant students and students with SEN needs.

This lesson can be paired with The Football Transfer Drama Storytelling game.
