We started the lesson by relaxing and focusing through a activity, we was separated in difference places an focusing a point of the wall and try not to lose focus, after this had the Jabberwocky poem by Lewis Carroll which i number by stanzas, read it in my mind and highlighted the powerful words and then i user my hands to transfer my voice whispered into my ears so i can hear without anyone's else listening to me. Therefore, i wrote what the poem make me feel and we made groups we decided how to help each other to get to the centre by saying what this poem makes us feel. Then with the same groups we had to take 5 objects and create  a quick game. then in Neil's lesson we  talked about theatre for children which we had to research about the Polka theatre.

It was adapted into a made-for-TV movie in 1989 by Thames Television which starred Jeremy Irons.
Danny is only four months old when his mother dies, and at the beginning of the book, he lives with his widowed father, William, in a gypsy caravan, where William operates a service station and a garage. When Danny is nine years old, he discovers that William has regularly participated in poaching pheasants owned by local magnate, Mr. Victor Hazell. One morning later, at 2:10 am, Danny discovers William's absence; and out of fear of some misfortune, he drives an Austin Seven to Hazell's Wood, where he finally finds William in a trap, incapacitated by a broken ankle, and takes him home. While William recovers from his injury, he and Danny discover that Mr. Hazell's annual pheasant launch party is approaching, which he welcomes to dukes, lords, barons, baronets, wealthy businessmen, etc., and they decide to humiliate him by capturing all the pheasants in the forest. To this end, Danny suggests that he and William place the contents of the sleeping pills prescribed by their surgeon, Doc Spencer, into the raisins that the pheasants will eat; and William calls this new method the "Sleeping Beauty".

After having hunted 120 pheasants from Hazell's Wood, William and Danny take a taxi (driven by a fellow poacher) to the house of the local vicar, where they hide the pheasants, and afterwards walk home. The next day, Mrs. Grace Clipstone, the vicar's wife, delivers the sleeping pheasants in a specially built large baby carriage, but the narcotic wears off and many of them try to escape. Still drugged, every one alights around the service station, just as Mr. Hazell arrives. With the help of Sergeant Enoch Samways, the village policeman, William and Danny shoo the stunned pheasants over (and in some cases inside) Mr. Hazell's Rolls Royce, damaging the car's paintwork. As Mr. Hazell leaves disgraced, all of the pheasants wake up completely and fly away in the opposite direction from Hazell's property, and his shooting party is ruined. The book ends when Danny is hailed as "the champion of the world" by William, Doc Spencer and Sgt. Samways. In addition, six pheasants have died of a sleeping pill overdose, so Sgt. Samways, Mrs Clipstone and William and Danny each get two. William and Danny then walk into town, intending to buy a new oven to cook their pheasants, and later plan to do some trout-tickling in a nearby wood.
