Abstract

This activity was created to give students an opportunity to improve their drama and writing skills. It also allows students to use their creativity in writing in order for them to become a particular character or inanimate object involved in a certain event. In order to better comprehend any text being read, a student needs to think as if he or she were actually experiencing the events in a story. Sometimes these events don’t necessarily involve a human being but rather animals or even inanimate objects.
