Week of 11/04: Let the trials begin!
(1) Order! Order! (Readers' Theatre: oral communication)
The class has been divided into 4 groups and scripts + rubrics were distributed today. On Tuesday, students will choose their roles and begin rehearsing. Class time will be provided this week for group work.
NEW! Presentation Dates :
Tuesday, Nov. 12 --> "R.R. Hood"(Group A: Rachel's)
Thursday, Nov. 14 --> "R. R. Hood"(Group B: Nathan's) + "Curly Pig vs. Wolf"
Monday, Nov. 18 --> "Harry Potter"
**Each group is recommended to bring simple props to enhance the presentation. For example, a face mask or a headpiece with the character's name may help the audience to keep track who is speaking throughout the play. Students are encouraged to think creatively when designing/making props. Keep in mind that each play is about a mock trial based on famous fairy tales.
(2) Coming Attraction! (Theatre poster: media literacy)
Using PowerPoint, students will design and create a poster that features their play. A well-designed poster is an effective communication tool and should include all necessary/pertinent information about your play.
**This assignment is to be submitted electronically. Details to come.
Poster due: Monday, Nov. 18.
