The Magician in the Classroom.
Teaching with Film
Practical magic. Film scenes for the
English-language classroom
|
Bring
the magic of cinema into your classroom. Motivate. Inspire.
And learn English too. A practical seminar/workshop providing
new ideas and inspiration for using film in the English-language
classroom.
From introducing a new topic to triggering a creative writing
task, from modelling a communication skill to illustrating a
situation, a well-chosen film scene can be the core of a lesson
and provides a multitude of uses in the English-language classroom.
Combine a film scene with a task-based, skills-based lesson
and use communicative language teaching methods then you have
a practical, relevant and powerful tool for learning English
(and about life too).
You want to add something extra to your lessons, something visual,
something with a bit of magic? Try teaching with film. An overview.

Seminar
1: The Film. The Screenplay.
Combining the use of a film scene and its screenplay provides
a myriad of options for the English-language classroom. We can
use it to work on all 4 skills, provide useful vocabulary and
phrases, and, by practicing acting skills, ensure it's not forgotten.
Seminar 2: The Film. The Soundtrack.
The soundtrack is an integral part of a film. In recent years
films with music as their main theme have proved highly successful
at the box office. By combining a film scene and the lyrics
of the song it depicts we can create skills- and task-based
lessons which are enjoyable, challenging and relevant.

Scenes
from Oscar-nominated films
for the English-language classroom
Finding film scenes to use in the classroom can be a time-consuming
business. So why not reduce your workload by concentrating on
the best English-language films as determined by the Academy
of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences annually in Los Angeles.
Here is a selection of scenes from films which were nominated
for an Oscar in recent years. How can we use them in
the classroom?
From Bohemian Rhapsody to Green Book: film scenes
to motivate, inspire and learn about life.
