In your notebook OR in an email to me, please answer the following questions:
Question One:
Which activity have we done in class help you develop your play the most? Why? How? How do you know that your play is improving? Here are some ideas of activities we have done, but if you can think of something else, definitely please point it out:
1. What If? Activity
2. Thinking up settings
3. Discussing Wants/Fears
4. Reading published plays
5. Reading other students' final plays
6. Reading one another's plays
7. One on one feedback with Carol
8. Feedback from a peer in the group
9. Having your play read out loud by the group
10. Having your play discussed/critiqued in the Pops/Questions/WhatIf? Format
11. Writing monologues
12. Discussing character tactics (the ways a character goes about getting his or her objective)
13. Writing What If?s for your own play
14. FTF Statements (First, Then, Finally)
15. Seeing quotes/talks from great playwrights
Question Two:
Of the same choices above (and of course, if you can think of others, please feel free to discuss them), what activities have helped you develop your personal voice/style as a writer? Distinguish this between the first question that helped you develop your play. Which activities helped you develop and explore your own voice?
