Winner Take All

I haven't watched much of the Stanley Cup Playoffs this year, but I am watching the Ottawa Senators in tough with the Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 7.  The winner gets to play against Nashville.  I like Crosby (he was an A student and his vice principal said he was a very kind person who treated everyone with respect, so I do like him) but of course, Ottawa is Canada's only representative in the playoffs so I would like to see them advance and beat Nashville, too.

Here are your journals for this week:

Grade 8:  How do you think the world was created?  Could you make a play about it?  Explain how.

How did you decide who would play the different characters in your "Creation of the World" play? Are you happy with your role?  What ideas do you have to make your character interesting and believable?  Are you happy with how things are going in your group?  Why or why not?

Grade 9/10 Drama (B Block):  How did your comedia del'arte play go?  Was it funny?  Explain why or why not.  What were you supposed to do as your character?  Were you successful?  Explain.  Rate the success of your play and explain why you rate it the way you do.

Which other play impressed you the most?  Explain why.

Theatre Production 11/12 (B Block):  How did your comedia del'arte play go?  Was it funny?  Explain why or why not.  What did you do (be specific) to put the play together?  Do you feel like you were successful?  Explain why or why not.  Which other play impressed you the most?  Explain why.

Make sure you hand in your concept for your sound and light show.  Include the names of actors you would like to use.
