Abstract

The main purpose of English learning is to use language to express oneself and communicate with others. However, in traditional teaching pattern, English teachers pay much attention to grammar and vocabulary knowledge but ignore the application of language, which makes it difficult for students to understand the meaning and communicative function of language. Without real experience and effective interaction, the improvement of students’ expression ability fails to achieve. However, Drama in Education breaks through the limitations of traditional teaching, puts students in the “center”, and stimulates students’ enthusiasm in English learning. More importantly, students as actors occupy the main position and have more opportunities to express, explore and learn through the whole process which can help students enhance their comprehensive ability. This paper takes “Hansel and Gretel” as an example to briefly explain the application of Drama in Education to English teaching in junior high school.
