Activity 3
              • Remember the chart and the
               steps are one way among
               many to help your students
               develop their own improvised
               monologue. The book is
               intended to accommodate your
               needs and not the other way
               around. There is a sequence
               of sub-products that leads to
               the final product, but you may
               add more or move them to
               better suit your class and your
               students’ needs.
              • Take time to check the chart
               with your students in order to be
               aware of the possible difficulties
               that may occur while carrying
               out the activities involved in
               developing a monologue.
              • It is important to distinguish
               between composing a
               monologue and improvising
               a monologue. In this practice,
               the focus is on improvisation.
               Improvisation and creativity
               can be fostered by providing
               students with enough resources
               to feel at ease and confident
               when preparing a text against
               the clock.

              Activity 4
              • Help your students prepare to listen to the monologue. Be sure your students learn to listen carefully even
          rack 28  • Go through the Remember information box with your students, since this will give them a little information
               when there are minor background noises, since that is required when participating in real-life settings.
               about Charles Chaplin.
           T  Activity 5

              • In The Great Dictator, Chaplin plays two parts, that of an unnamed Jewish barber and that of a dictator
               (with a physical resemblance to Adolf Hitler, who in the movie is called Adenoid Hynkel). In the movie, the
               unnamed barber gives a speech in favor of peace while impersonating the Great Dictator, making it seem
               as if he’d had a change of heart.
              • The CD icon will appear throughout the practice to indicate the activity the track is linked to. However,
               remember the way we order activities is a suggestion and you may change them to suit the purposes you
               established with your students.
              • RB Box can either extend the current practice or provide material for developing it. If you have enough
               material, take time during the practice to go through the Reader’s Book to foster curiosity and improve
               reading skills.
