FREE PRACTICE
Video Commentary
Method:
1.
The whole class watches a short (e.g. 2 minutes) video clip without sound. The video could be linked to
the topic that is being studied. While it is playing, SS work in pairs or small groups and write down what is
happening. The clip could be played a second or third time, if required.
2.
Group feedback: each pair or group has to come up to the front and describe the events in the clip as it is
playing. If there are many pairs or groups, T could choose a few to give examples. T makes notes of any
errors, then elicits corrections from the whole class.
3.
Next, SS have to write alternative dialogue for the scene, acting it out where possible. After a short time of
preparation (i.e. rehearsal), e.g. 10 minutes, with T monitoring, checking, and correcting, SS act out their
work in front of the video clip. Again, T makes notes of errors, then elicits corrections from the whole
class. Prizes could be given for the best / funniest / most imaginative work.
Tips:
•
SS should be encouraged to use dictionaries when they are writing.
•
