Hello everybody :)
Here I want to share some tips on how to make student interested with english subject and make it fun.
You can came out with many ideas but here I want to use drama activities and how to use it in class :)
Drama activities are a fun, easy and low resource way to teach children English as a foreign language. Because of their communicative style, they are also an excellent way for children to practice using English in realistic situations. Some groups may need some sessions warming up, getting comfortable with each other and building up self-confidence before jumping into the role-play activities and teacher should keep this in mind when planning the first few sessions.
"How Would You Look If…"
The teacher should have the children stand in a circle and he or she should hold up a card, one at a time, which has a different picture showing an emotion or a situation on it. The teacher can then ask the children to act out how they would look/behave if they were feeling the emotion shown on the card or were in the situation shown on the card. Some examples that can be put on the cards include:
- You are cooking a big meal
- You see a car crash
- You won the lottery
- You are watching fireworks
- You are stuck in the lift
- Someone tells you a funny joke
- Emotions: bored, scared, happy, angry, sad
Usually students will be more interested with activity like this rather than reading a book or passage.
With this kind of activity also sometimes can dig out students' talent.
Good Luck!
