I find ‘Poetry in Motion’ a great way to teach lines from Shakespeare!
I would like to thank you, David Farmer, so much for all the online drama games – I am doing a debate club via Zoom and they are wonderful for warm ups – I am a big fan of yours having bought both your drama games books and regular visits for your drama tips eg the Cinderella freeze frame, for when I used to teach in a classroom before Covid.
Love the Guess Who I Am game – had great fun choosing lots of famous paintings and can’t wait to try it out on Y4 in Zoom time on Thursday.
I just wanted to thank you for this wonderful resource. I have found inspiration and comfort from your emails for years. I thought you should know your generous sharing of ideas has been really appreciated.
Thank you David Farmer !!! I love your Drama Games and they inspire me greatly!
I have really enjoyed learning about the games and creating ways to use them in my classes for adults. It takes a bit of courage to get students to move out of their comfortable chairs to the imaginary stage – and courage for the teacher to make this happen in a safe and fun way for the students!
I loved this game, the students were extremely spontaneous and that made it more enjoyable. I often use all the drama games that you send and believe me it’s made my classes fun!
Thank you for sending me the suggestions for the parents’ workshop. The parents loved those sessions and could understand how their children are learning and why their kids say that drama is so much fun. They really loved it!
