Performing Fences, Day 1: February 21, 2019

Focus: How can performance help us analyze a text?

1. Warming up a few rounds of Quizlet Live to test your retention of Fences vocabulary!

2. Giving you an overview of your journal entries for Fences

On your personal blog each day/night, you will need to complete the following:

• Respond thoughtfully and specifically to the Level 2 or 3 question posed by the Acting Companies that performed that day (3-5 sentences). You may be able to do this in class.

• Complete a Connect, Extend, Challenge entry for one specific line/passage from EACH SCENE performed that day. The line can be spoken aloud or from the scene descriptions. This will be homework.

• These should be published on your personal blog before you walk into class the next day. Be sure to label clearly in the title of your post which scenes each post is addressing.

3. Enjoying Reader's Theater: 1.2 and hopefully 1.3

HW:
FOR TOMORROW: 

• Complete your first Reader's Theater journal entries for the scene(s) performed in class today. See the full description under #2 on today's class blog.

• Study the Fences vocabulary terms to prepare for a short quiz.
