OverviewDrama and movement provide the ideal way to teach a foreign language. By actively involving the body, learning becomes easier and it is easier to retain what has been learned. The simple routines in this book and DVD set combine movement with repetition of important phrases, making learning languages easy and enjoyable. Teaching French through Dance and Movement provides an active learning approach to learning popular French topics. For each topic, in addition to the main dance routine, there is also a bank of movement activities that introduce and reinforce the vocabulary, enabling the whole topic to be taught actively. These tried and tested routines and activities have been developed by a language specialist who is also a qualified dance teacher. They have been used with students of all ages from Key Stage to PGCE students. All have achieved outstanding results whilst enjoying language learning.
