Activity 54- Mini Drama


                                          Video snippets taken from Youtube

Here is a great strategy that can be adapted to different short video segments. Students will definitely have a ball!

Level: Any
Skill: speaking
Material needed: short video segments from popular tv series 

Instructions:

Show the video segment with no sound on. Then ask students to work in groups and create the lines for the scene. After groups have prepared and rehearsed the lines, volunteers go to the front and speak the lines as the scene is being shown in the screen. 

Tip: write on the board the number of times each character speaks so that the group can work on the necessary number of lines properly.Example:
 Everybody Hates Chris

GREG
CHRIS
GREG
CHRIS (students can invent a line for the moment Chris is screaming)

Glee

SANTANA
FINN

RACHEL
