Script Investigating The Model
Script • A Few Good Men
Script • 1) What is the trouble or conflict in the story? Internal conflict or external? Explain. • 2) How does the setting in this model affect the mood of the story? (where and when the story takes place) • 3) (Script writers not only use words to show how an actor is feeling, but actions and silences as well) Are both characters in the novel aware of how the other is feeling? How can you figure it out? Why did the author set it up this way?
Script • 4) (You can tell a lot about someone by the way they speak) What can you tell about Tim’s character by the lines he speaks? What about Mrs. Phipps? Give examples. • 5) What important piece of information are Tim and Mrs. Phipps not saying in this script, but you get anyway? • 6) (Actions speak louder than words) List 3 actions that the characters perform that show they’re in a conflict.
Script • Characteristics of a Script: • Conflict • Setting used to reflect the mood • Stage directions are very important • Character’s lines reflect his or her background • Physical actions and unspoken ideas can help show emotions and plot lines
Script Grammar Notes • A phrase is a group of words that doesn’t contain a subject and/or a verb, but works as a unit within a sentence. It can’t stand alone • Ex. The writer of the play appeared at the opening. • A participial phrase acts as an adjective. It is made up of a participial ( forms of a verb ending in –ing, -ed, or –t), its object, and any modifiers. • Ex. Jumping on the leaves; glanced at the clock; swept the walk.
Script Grammar Notes • A prepositional phrase is a group of words that begins with a preposition and ends with a noun or pronoun. • Ex. He took the bus to Saskatoon. • The noun or pronoun is the object of the preposition. Think of “anything a fly can do to a teapot” by, of, near, about, around, behind, with, under, for, in, at, etc. See p. 307 Language Arts Survival Guide.
Script Grammar Notes • Prepositional phrase can be used to describe a noun or pronoun. In this case it is being used as an adjective to tell which one, what kind, or how many. • Prepositional phrase can be used to describe a verb, then it is being used as an adverb to tell how, where, or when. • Prepositional Phrases
