 ROLE-PLAY PROJECT
I. DESCRIPTION
In the Role-play Project, students will work in small groups of
3 to 5, where they will start by brainstorming ideas and
developing a plot that demonstrates their language skills.
The plot can be based on a particular scene or real-life
situation. For example, the group may choose to simulate a
visit to a hospital, a job interview, or a family dinner. Once
the plot has been developed, students will work on creating a
script that will allow them to play out the scene in the target
language.
