Our first unit is "Narrative Studies." First we will determine how a writer crafts a character; second part is setting and finally plot. There will be a quiz for each part (character, setting and plot).
In addition to reading text, we will present character interpretations in theatrical presentations. Students will choose a short interior monologue from a book, play, poem, film or song and present it in front of the class. I must approve the monologue before August 19. Here are some suggestions:
Average Girl by Emily Osment (song)
selection from Witness by Karen Hesse (book)
I, Too, Sing America by Langston Hughes (poem)
You may post a monologue selection for approval. Post the title, text type (book, poem, song, from a movie or play) and the author.
