MY DEAR COLLEAGUE
ONE GOOD IDEA WHICH AIWAYS WORKS IS MIIMING TECHINIQUE.ASK THEM TO READ SOME SCENES OF THE TEXTS THEY DO AND TRY TO MIME IN CLASS THE OTHER STUDENTS HAVE TO GUESS THE SCENES. A LOT OF FUN.KIDS CAN MIME VERY WELL EVERYTHING.

You may find it useful to look at WHY they are not motivated and how to deal with it? I found this free ebook very useful and would recommend it to any teacher.
