Creating a play with the theme : Honesty, Integrity and Right Attitude To Work
Creating a play with the theme of honesty, integrity, and right attitude to work can be a fun and educational activity for grade 4 pupils. Here are some examples to help you get started:
- “The Honest Employee” – This play could revolve around a character who always tells the truth and takes pride in their work. They could be contrasted with a character who lies to get ahead and doesn’t care about doing a good job. The story could show how honesty and hard work lead to success, while dishonesty and laziness lead to failure.
- “The Integrity Inspector” – In this play, a character could be appointed to inspect the workplace and ensure that everyone is acting with integrity. They could encounter different scenarios where employees are tempted to cut corners or cheat, and they could show how doing the right thing is always the best choice.
- “The Right Attitude to Work” – This play could focus on the importance of having a positive attitude towards work. The characters could demonstrate how being enthusiastic, motivated, and diligent can lead to personal and professional growth. They could also show how a negative attitude can hold you back and make work less enjoyable for everyone

Bode: (smiling) Hello, Adeyinka. Please have a seat. We are almost done.
Adeyinka: (noticing Tosin’s lack of work) What’s wrong with him? He’s not doing anything.
