Five-minute Play (Drama)
Why drama? It is because drama helps learners develop a wide area of skills such as incorporating physical movement, vocal action, and mental concentration. These are seldom found in traditional classrooms. In addition, students can find a way to learn the material and practice their language. As David Booth mentioned, "Drama can make breaks with the dominant expectations of school and society, and become...a movement toward a consciousness of what might be. In so doing, drama can aid in bringing about needed social changes that...could result in a freer human development."
Isn't that beautiful? Now, put your group name, members, characters, setting and plot in the following.

I Am So Touched!
Dear all,
I was so impressed that you came to school and worked hard singing. Though few of your classmates did not make it, you did not complain. You still worked hard practicing it. That is what I always pursue in my life: less complaints, more laughter. You are so great! You did it! I was especially touched when I saw your sunny faces. Your politeness and your diligent attitude made me feel "life is beautiful." You are so beautiful!
PS. Dexter, Ed, Nas, Clark, Michelle, Tako, and Jane, please come to me this Monday. I'd like to listen to you and make sure you know how to sing the songs!
English Song
Dear all,
