Activity 31 (continues)
• You may want to have a go at
letting your students say their
monologue in a more informal
way and also prepare another
for a contest-like event (such as
the one we suggest here).
Activity 32
• In this activity, students should
not rehearse their monologue.
We should strive to foster
creativity and show how to
deal with the unexpected,
both necessary skills for
achieving a greater degree of
language proficiency.
• Take time to organize an
event that showcases their
monologues. As we have stated,
socializing a product should not
be restricted to the classroom, it
should aim for a wider audience.
Activity 33
• Take into account that the
model we present here is just
for illustrative purposes. We do
not intend for all your students’
monologues to be about fear,
cellphones or the problems of
living alone. They are suggestions that your students may use, but it is far better to base one’s work on
one’s own interests. We do not advise that you give students their topics, but, as stated in a previous activity,
that your students agree on the topics to be dealt with in their own monologue.
• Remember that you may also record their monologues and upload them to the web, if available. That will
also produce comments from real people.
