December Book Share - Mysteries


Mysteries 
1. Find yourself a good mystery book (no Encyclopedia Brown, though). Show it to Mr Mike.
2. Read and enjoy!
3. Choose a scene from your book that you liked because it was funny, happy, sad, exciting, suspenseful, or made you stop and think.
4. Cut out a “shadow puppet” for each character in the scene you have chosen. Also, cut out shapes for important objects and scenery.
5. Plan out your performance. Select an interesting scene from your book.  Start off with a sentence or two of introduction about what happened up to this point. Next, have your characters act out the scene you have chosen. Move the characters as you need or want to. Make it interesting!
6. Conclude with a sentence or two. Try to come up with something more original then, “If you want to know what happens next, read the book.”
7. Be sure that you know your stuff! Don’t read a script to us! You will have to practice a few times before your presentation. Do it for your parents, your little brother, your teddy bear – anyone who will listen! Practicing will make a BIG difference!
