| Mon | Make up your own skit: | Review your notes for some of the videos that you watched this semester and make up your own scene (6 to 8 lines) modeled on any of them. Your scene may be shorter than the original, it may use different words, or even combine lines from different episodes or films. In other words, you should stay close to the original language of the videos, but not necessarily repeat it verbatim. In class, you'll be asked to act out your scene. If you can, get together with another student from your section and compose/rehearse your two scenes together. |
