After teaching students how to quote, have students work in pairs to create imaginary conversations by selecting quotes from their text and then mixing them up with new dialogue they write themselves to create a coherent conversation. The only rule is the dialogue should make sense. After, volunteer students can perform their dialogues in pairs for the class.


This exercise extends the lesson on quoting as well as developing writing and critical thinking skills.
