Why was this book written? Stories are very much part o f our lives as adults as well as children. We hear stories every day on the news, read them in the newspaper, exchange them with friends as jokes, anecdotes, rumours, stories overheard or ways o f sharing confidences. We collect stories we consider funny, surprising or shocking, and which throw light on what is happening in the world and our views about this. It is one way we exchange information, both about events that have really happened, and those that have been imagined.
Drama and Improvisation (Resource Books for Teachers)
Why was this book written? Drama and Improvisation is a series of activities designed to enliven your English classes and activate your students’ imagination and creativity. I devised and collected them over many years working as a language trainer and actor/director with the English Teaching Theatre (ETT). Many of them emerged from improvisation activities with students in class or with teachers at workshops and on courses all over the world. Some of them were inspired by working with ETT actors and some are adaptations of material used by a London-based group of improvisation actors and comedians called the Comedy Store Players.
Revised and updated on the basis of wide teacher feedback, New Snapshot combines exciting new features with the tried and trusted approach of the first edition, ensuring that the course remains one which teachers can trust and students love.
Step-by-Step Writing: A Standards-Based Approach is a four-level series uniquely designed to cover the same genres across all levels. It covers standards-based writing genres, conventions, and organizational strategies. Through a variety of activities, students progress from words to sentences to paragraphs, developing the skills and confidence required for successful composition writing and improved test scores.
