Task Two – Opposition to Vaccination You must plan, practice and perform a role play scenario about a reason why people opposed Jenner’s discoveries and vaccination Work in groups of 4/5 people, as there needs to be 6 groups in total I will give each group a scenario to perform Don’t tell the other groups what scenario you are going to do – their job is to work this out whilst you’re performing it! You have 15/20 mins to prepare your short role play and then you will perform them and we will try and uncover what opposition to Jenner and vaccination is being performed We will add each opposition to vaccination to a spider diagram whilst each group is performing

Plenary Each group is going to perform their role play to the rest of the class As you watch the different role plays, you must work out which scenario is being acted out Copy down the spider diagram below and add reasons for opposition to vaccination in between the different role play performances Why was there so much opposition to vaccination?
