ONE backdrop scene for their role play, these background images
can be selected from Google images. When students are using the
internet, teachers must stress the importance of web safety and
staying on task.
Assessment as learning
This activity is perfect for students self-assessment, as the activity is
very hands on and allows for students self expression. It is required
after all role plays have been completed, to write down one

what they could have improved on. By allowing this self reflection,
students will be able to look ahead in their learning and think of
what they need to improve on before they achieve more.
