  • Teaching English through dance [Elektronski vir] : movements as language
    Kennedy, Amy
    Movement in its various forms can be a useful tool in the classroom, its functions varying from preparing the brain for work and providing breaks to teaching and reviewing materials. In navigating ... the world of teaching ESL to children, another such function movement can take on is that of a neutral language with which all children can engage. In this sense, creative movement and dance can become a bridge between a child’s mother tongue and English. Through an example class, I will demonstrate one way in which movement can be utilised as language in teaching English to Slovene speakers, although this method could also prove successful in teaching ESL to a multi-lingual class.
