Education Resources: Beauty and the Beast the Musical
Resources for Teachers and Educators
Disney has worked with National Literacy Trust to develop 'Beauty, The Beast and You' - a creative challenge exploring the 'tale as old as time'', a new resource for teachers including teaching guides and worksheets to enhance any visit to see the show.
Ready to join the challenge?
We suggest you:
- Download the teacher guidelines and read through the recommendations and details
- Explore all the resources including script extracts, character descriptions and teaching frameworks
- Encourage class discussion on the various themes and characters in the story as well as the connection of fairy tales to modern-day stories and books
- Allow time in class for students to work on their challenge and, if allowed, encourage extension work to be completed at home (with input from family welcome!)
- Celebrate everyone’s contributions according to the age group you are teaching as outlined in the guidelines, such as by creating a wall display, a showcase of students’ character monologues or designing a book list of titles created by the class
School Workshops
Groups can also enhance their visit with a workshop led by specially-trained Disney Theatrical Teaching Artists. Complete the form to make an enquiry about workshops for your class.
