At the conclusion of the plays the students were asked some very basic questions and put their hands up. Eye closed to allow them to be honest and not just copy their mates.
Surprisingly the larger majority of student found the 5 weeks extremely difficult. On the other hand the large majority enjoyed the process and wanted to do more.
After this students were ask several more questions to blog about. Reading the responses it was pleasing to see that overall the students perceived they had improved in their oral language. Was this necessarily true........Short answer is NO! Even though they enjoyed it, were they ready to take on Broadway?? Absolutely not, but there was enough positive energy and excitement that it will be interesting to watch their improvement over the next 5 weeks. Students wanted more so they have been given the remainder of the term to put together one last performance. Surely 4.5 weeks of practice will be better than a 2 week period......... Only time will tell.
Overall however ever student took part and didn't shy away from the challenge.
