ESL Drama Start: Drama Activities for ESL learners

Fine resource book whether or not you are accustomed to the concepts of English as a Second Language. Book had many original ideas for gradually introducing drama in any setting while emphasizing the principles of listening activities, communication, co-operation, and more. Some of my favorite games of over one hundred listed are "Three Truths and a Lie" (each child secretly records four remarks about themselves and class has to guess which one doesn't belong), "Stop the Bus" (Teacher calls out a category and letter/sound prompting one child from each small group in a race to the chalkboard to spell out a word) and "Master and Robots" (pairs of children one as master and the other as robot must be directed so as to not bump into one another). Book includes an active table of content as well as several plays at the close to try out such as "It is Better to Forget" (having a surprise ending) and "The Body" where participants learn one just why one part is connected to the other part. Very good book and I did enjoy!

Exactly what I needed for my ESL beginner's class.

Libro molto utile a chi ha voglia di uscire dalla monotonia della routine didattica. Vi sono attività suddivise per categorie ed ovviamente per livelli. Lo consiglio vivamente.

Quite helpful!

It is more suitable for elementary division. However, I work with secondary school students.
