Activity 4
              • Have students explore the
               images, ask them about what
               they see, and ask them if they’ve
               heard about the authors or
               the plays.
              • Ask questions about the colors,
               images, fonts, etc. Tell them to
               focus on the mouse’s body
               on the poster of The Mousetrap;
               they should notice that it is in
               fact a fingerprint, like the ones
               detectives use to solve murders.
              • Clarify the meaning of the
               words they don’t know.
              • Elicit what characters are on
               the posters, what they think the
               plays are about, how they can
               tell, etc. Some possible
               answers are:
               ◗  What is the play about? A
                 fairy that lives in the forest / A
                 murder / A man named Ernest
               ◗  Is it comedy, drama,
                 suspense? Comedy /
                 suspense / drama
               ◗  What characters do you think
                 are in it? Animals that live in the
                 woods and fantastic characters
                 / A murderer, a detective / A
                 man named Ernest


              Activity 5
              • Ask students to sit in teams. Encourage them to think about the dramatic reading, what kind of
               performance they want to give, what the best place and time is to present it, etc.
              • Discuss each team’s suggestions and decide on the date, time and place of the dramatic reading as a
               group. Maybe they could do the dramatic reading during English and invite some parents, or do it after
               school hours so nobody misses class. Another option is to present it during the Monday ceremony, in front
               of the whole school. Decide with them what option suits the group.
