OUR DRAMA FOR GRAMMAR TEACHING approach
Teaching of English as a foreign and a second language, specifically grammar, could be done with Literature, theater arts . We consider role play, theater arts and every form of interaction among learners as the best way to improve language acquisition. Our method is a blend of English language and literature lessons. The drama for grammar method highlights grammar points in the play as the acts and scenes unfold. Visibility is given to structure: SUBJECT-VERB-COMPLEMENT, parts of speech or word class: determiners, adjectives,nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, as the plot of the play unfolds. We call this type of play: A LANGUAGE LAB PLAY. # PLASTOSPHERE above is an example. Let’s use the conversations of the characters to crack the English Grammar puzzle.
