Slide 1 - Slide

This socrative quiz gets students to reflect on some topics that may have come up during the first week, as well as to get them thinking about how to make drama activities work in a language classroom.
Finally with the last two questions, you will segway into getting them to think about using the voice effectively as teachers.
You can choose in socrative to make this quiz teacher-paced so that you can discuss their answers along the way or you can let them complete the quiz independently (in or out of class time) by chosing ‘student-paced’—you can then generate a pdf of their answers which you can share with them so that they can see others’ responses.
