What we're up to

Apropos Theatre has produced a free KS1 resource pack for primary school teachers, built around the themes of The Truth About Trees. The pack contains cross-curricular lesson plans and activities covering science, drama, literacy, PSHE, and art and design — mapped to both the National Curriculum for England and Curriculum for Excellence in Scotland.

 

Every activity is designed to work as a standalone lesson, with differentiation guidance and extension tasks throughout. You don't need to book to see the show to use it. It's free to download, no sign-up required, and has been written specifically for mixed-ability Key Stage 1 classes.

 

If you teach KS1 and you're looking for environmental and nature-themed classroom resources that link science to storytelling, this is a good place to start.
