For other performance art activities such as role plays, impromptu shows, chanting nursery rhymes, dramas and the like are seldom practiced. Those activities are made up for by this study. (2) The teacher can not bring their language teaching activities together with the performance art when the activities are carried out. The main factor is because the teacher can not deal with the essence of the teaching method ; on the other hand, it is the shortage of the teaching materials. As a result, the teaching method becomes an empty concept and the teaching method is hard to be carried out. Therefore, it causes the language teaching to be limited in the traditional teaching approach.
