This book provides teachers who are non-specialists with an accessible introduction to using improvisation and mime with students. The hundreds of one-off ideas in this easy-to-use resource book will help students to develop confidence and basic skills in drama and movement. Students are introduced to a range of activity types including: building dialogues, quick improvisations, improvisations with individuals, pairs and groups, building characters and situations and movement and mime. Activities can be used across the curriculum in a range of role-play situations, or just for fun to get students moving and interacting with each other. The pages are designed to be photocopied onto card, laminated, and cut into cards and strips so they can be used again and again.
