13. Reading and dramatization
T. Dear, children! I am sure all of you would like to be actors. Imagine that you are
actors, let’s play! But at first read these stories than use gestures and mime to
dramatize these ones.
(Pupils are proposed to read the stories and to show the plot by mean of
gestures.)
The Lion and the Mouse
Once there was a big forest. The lion was the king of the forest. One day he
was having his afternoon nap. A little young mouse was playing near him. She
jumped on his back and the lion woke up. He caught the mouse in his paw. The
mouse said to him, “Oh, please, let me go and I will help you one day.” The lion
let her go and said, “You are too small to help me. Go away!”
One day the lion got caught in a hunter's net. He began to cry.
The mouse heard him and came to help. She cut the net with her sharp little teeth.
The lion was free and full of joy. He said, “thank you, my little friend! You saved
my life!” The smallest friend can be the strongest help.
The Fox in the Well
One day a red fox goes for a walk. He comes to a well. He wants to drink.
He doesn't know that there is no water.
The Fox looks down and falls into the well. He cannot get out of it and begins to
cry. But then he hears that some-body comes to the well. It is a goat.
The Fox is very clever and has a plan how to get out of the well.
The Goat looks down and sees the Fox.
'Hello, Mr.Fox! What are you doing there?' he asks. 'Hello, Mr.Goat.
I am having a good time here,' says the Fox. 'The grass in the well is very
good.' 'Do you eat grass?' asks the Goat. 'No, I don't. But you can come down
and eat it. It is very good.' 'Oh, you are so kind. Thank you,' says the Goat. And
he jumps down into the well.
Then the Fox jumps on the Goat's back, gets out of the well and runs away.
T. Thank you very much! You are real actors!
