Plays are designed to act out stories to entertain people or deliver a message.
On TV, we watch programs that are written with scripts. Sometimes actors act out the scripts, sometimes they are used for cartoons or animations. In animations, people read out the lines with expression.
- Silently read your play to yourself. Check out the tricky words and find out what they mean.
- Quietly read your play out loud.
- Think about what characters you would like to try reading.
- Meet with your group and quickly choose a character to try. Take turns at playing characters if people want to.
- When you read, read with expression.
- Film your play with a camera and watch it to see if you read with expression.
WALT read with expression
We will know this when we can:
- Read every word accurately
- Read punctuation- pause at commas, pause for longer at fullstops
- Change the volume of our voice
- Change the tone of our voice- angry, sad, excited
- Read each sentence as if we were saying it ourselves
