What do teachers say about this resource? (9660)
Overall, an interesting resource which has the potential to enliven GCSE lessons. The idea is novel and I can see the drama element engaging many students. The topics covered reflect the specification well and introduce authentic vocabulary in context.
This resource will be undoubtedly useful to rehearse pronunciation and intonation, but also to learn lexical elements ranging from theme-specific terms to conversational gambits in the target language.
