This resource contains everything you need to think, plan and deliver lessons by using an immersive narrative. Within these pages, you will find:

• Guides and tips on how to world build and prepare a thematic learning project.
• The experience of four teachers who have gone through a similar project.
• All of the assets these teachers created during their lessons for inspiration.
  

This resource will be useful to educators looking for new ways to deliver the National Curriculum, boost student engagement, dig deeper into complex concepts or moral questions, and create learning experiences that are more collaborative and empowering.

We tested and designed this resource with the invaluable help of four teachers and their students: Caitlin Haresign, Lucy Harrison, Sarah Lyons-Wallis and Simon DeCourcey. Although we have included that narrative in this resource, you don’t have to use that specific one to have a go — you can create your own stories and shape your own worlds.

This resource presents the experiences of a range of teachers - some of them commencing their education journey, some of them seasoned educators - teaching many different young people with many different life experiences. The reason for that is because we want you to find something within these pages that relates to your own context. You can create brand new stories that make sense to you and your circumstances. No matter your subject, experience or if you’ve ever been to an event at Aviva Studios or by Factory International before. You just need to feel adventurous and ready to try a new way of doing things.
