The workshop activities in English in Action Book 1 provides stimulating opportunities for students to creatively, expressively and meaningfully devise a host of engaging scenarios, and then role-play or perform them.
Most of the activities involve a drama component that will enhance students’ confidence in communicating and develop their group work skills, as well as increase students’ creativity, self-awareness and personal development. Journal entry and other written reflection activities that follow the lesson outlines will help consolidate the content of units and can be used for homework or assessment.
