Title | Using Plays with English Learners |
Body | A recent query on the TESL listserv regarding the use of drama to teach English to speakers of other languages received the following replies. ---- While at the local library, I found "Plays: The Drama Magazine for Young People". Their mailing address is: P. O Box 600160 Newton, MA 02460-002 1-800-630-5755 The magazine has a variety of plays and lists material by levels, going from the lower to advanced levels. I have some info about using plays in the EFL classroom on my website, if you're interested. Alice Dana Walker http://ad.walker.org Walker, A.D. Re: ESL drama - one act ESOL play?
