Congratulations! Coffeehouse Responses Due! Script Workshop; Raisin in the Sun/Clybourne Park Project

Congratulations on surviving your coffeehouse performance!

Good job! We heard lots of encouraging comments from the other grades about your performances. Some senior parents came up to us afterward and praised your skills, your voices, and your courage. Thank you for making the evening a successful one.

I hope you now see (and can reflect on) your progress as public speakers, writers, and performers.

Period 3:

Today, I'd like to go back to reading/sharing. Let's return to our scripts (both the sketch & the short play draft) and share our work.

In your groups please read at least 1 of the 2 scripts from each author (given time, you can read both if your author wants them read). Read the scripts out loud. It's important that the playwright hear their words out loud! Feel free to give advice or comments to each other after reading. You will be given participation credit for engaging in this activity. Please close your Chromebooks and attend to the printed scripts during this activity.

Group 1

  • Tashiana, Jahna, Anthony, Elani, Janiyajames, Fardowsa, Roxy 

Group 2

  • Aricelis, Eniyah, Kyla, Kanene, Jade, Gabrielle, Shaolin


Enjoy!

Period 4:

After your reading workshop, please use the time given to you to work on your Clybourne Park/Raisin in the Sun project (see previous instructions).

Your project draft is due Tuesday, Nov. 26. Please complete it on your own time this weekend if you did not complete it during our writing time today.

HOMEWORK: Your project draft is due Tuesday, Nov. 26. Please complete it on your own time this weekend if you did not complete it during our writing time today. Upload your draft to our Google Classroom.
