What do you do with a class of students who just don't speak or respond to anything you say or do? (middle school ~adults)
It drives me insane! ANY ideas welcome.

Well, making students speak is tough.: Well for private lessons ( one to one ) adults or children I've done special worksheets, using role plays. But the part they have to act is in the native language. for example A is in french ( I 'm French) and I'm acting B . On the worksheet nothing is written so they have to understand what I say. The first time , they don't. But increasingly they get a better comprehension. This method has been successful with my students since I began using it. But it takes time to do the worksheets.
