Objective: SWBAT dramatize a scene from Act 1 of "Fences."
Do-Now: FREE WRITE (Write 5-7 sentences about anything you want)
Today: 1) Discuss Jackie Robinson article
2) How to Dramatize a Scene: How you can use your tone, facial expressions, and actions to add meaning to dialogue.
3) In groups of no more than 2-4, choose a two-page portion of a scene from Act 1 of "Fences" that we have already read in class. Using your book as a script, prepare a dramatization of the scene to present to the class. Focus on how you will use tone, facial expressions, and actions to add meaning to your dialogue. You WILL be able to use the books during your performance, therefore you DO NOT have to memorize your lines. Your group will be given time to rehearse the scene before presenting it to the class. You may use items in the class or items you have with you as props. Your group will receive a grade out of 20 POINTS for you presentation: 10 pts. for overall performance (did the class enjoy your scene and was your scene well-rehearsed?), 5 pts. for creativity (were you able to make the scene your own using the resources available to you?), and 5 pts. for fluency (did the performance go smoothly, without any stops or mistakes?).
Exit Slip: Do you feel your group's performance went well? What might you do differently next time? What are some things you or your group needs to work on for your next performance?
