Dramatization in English Lesson - Authentic Letter Writing








Dramatization was used in our English lesson on 11 January. Pupils role-played passengers on the train. Two pupils are the main characters. One boy roled-played a pupil from Northview Primary School, while another girl is from Peixin Primary School. The boy dropped his wallet and the Peixin pupil alerted him. The boy decided to write a Thank-you letter to Peixin Primary School to thank the girl for her kindness act. Through the use of a Story Map, I guided the pupils on how they can develop the story for the letter. Through this role-playing, writing a Thank-you letter becomes more authentic and meaningful. :)
