Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Should work as a group with the Activity: Example script resource.
Pupils working at greater depth: Encourage children to think about general background noise; for example, in some radio plays, it may say that the room is echoey, how could they alter their recording to give the impression of echoey? (By adding reverb)
