Programme:
The workshop will mainly consist of practical work and involves quite a lot of physical activity. The whole weekend should be seen as a 'give and take' among all the participants and me. We will share experiences in the group and discuss how the activities can be adapted to your particular teaching situation. Basically, the activities will be useful for students of intermediate to advanced levels of English.

Saturday afternoon:
- Different warm-up activities helpful to create a group spirit.
- Drama techniques that can be used to introduce students to drama work.
We will practise positions and combine individual images with movement and words.
Some of the techniques will be still images, link depiction and thought tracking.

Drama work based on Headway New Intermediate, unit 8 (conditionals). Topic: Money and the prospect of gaining (and losing) sudden wealth.
