Please turn in your school copies of Fences.
1. Warming up with the first thing you say to us
2. Offering you the opportunity to polish your essay with stage directions and/or a dedication
- Click HERE for yesterday's editing slides.
3. Structuring your one-minute speech/performance
Option 1: Use the entire minute to deliver 60 seconds of your monologue.
- Time it in advance.
- Memorization is definitely not required, and I recognize that you will not be making consistent eye contact with the audience.
- You'll need to use your VOICE (emotion, pauses, etc.) to connect with us.
Option 2: Use most of the minute to talk about the process.
- Why did you pick this character?
- How did help you establish empathy with this person?
- What did you learn / struggle with / accomplish?
- Pick one small sampling of the monologue to share.
Option 3: Half & half--use 30 seconds to talk about the process, 30 seconds of monologue
- (Click HERE for the presentation rubric--very similar to all the ones you've had this year.)
- You do not need to use any slides, but you're welcome to if it helps.
HW:
1. Submit your monologue to www.turnitin.com by 3:00 pm today.
2. Figure out what you're going to present to us tomorrow and practice.
