5.0 out of 5 stars
a great resource book for drama and ESL teaching enthusiasts, June 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Drama (Resource Books for Teachers) (Paperback)
Charlyn's book is both passionate and practical. She focuses on the why's and hows of teaching drama to ESL students from beginner to advanced, but her coverage of the subject of teaching drama, scripted or improvisational, would be useful for native English speakers as well. In one section she offers 50 drama games for ESL students. These games are explained briefly and clearly. Learning outcomes are articulated. There is a one page chart explaining the title of each game, its nature, what it practises, and what level it is good for. She looks at drama and textbook teaching, drama and pronunciation, drama and literature. In short, as a stand-alone or supplement, drama's part of the meal. The book is quick to read, and there is a whole section on how to plan and do a drama project from start to finish. Great stuff!
