 * //Workshop Themes//**

In 4-hour ESL grammar classes, it can be hard for students to stay awake and engaged. Using cartoons creates visual and engaging experiences, and often tells stories without dialogue. Adding animated clips allows students to talk about what they have learned and to practice grammar in action. The students will snap out of their trances, bringing out their popcorn and pens and be ready to participate. This technique is adaptable for grammar, reading, and content courses.
