Session seven
The purpose of this activity is to show students that drama becomes alive when it is acted out. They have to think about drama elements such tone of voice, mood, pauses... This has to be reflected in the writing of the play.
As a warm – up activity the teacher arranges students in circle according to birthday order or alphabetical by first name.
With the piece of drama being rehearsed (act 5, scene 3 in Romeo and Juliet) in front of students and the roles assigned, some aspects in drama are braimstormed such as characters speaking and how they speak according to the explicit information given by the narrator or between brackets.
Students read the dialogues aloud. Once read, they act them out.
The scene is developed.
After this, students use different expressions or moods for the same conversation in order to pay attention to the effects achieved. We also use different strategies such as mime and students comment on effect.
