- Into the WoodsBy Mrs. Norris
- "It was a dark and stormy night?" Nope! Our story begins at a campsite. Three friends have hiked into the woods and are now resting around the campfire after a long day of hiking, fishing, and making camp. The fire is crackling, crickets are chirping...
- So...what do these characters talk about around the campfire? Should someone tell a scary story? Are they recalling the events of the day and laughing together?
- Oh, no! Someone is upset! Look at the characters' expressions. What would you say if you were upset or angry? What happened to cause this argument?
- Wow! I've had so much fun today with you! I haven't been camping before.
- I'm really tired. I feel like I've done all of the work and you guys just played.
- We caught fish for dinner. I didn't even know that you could do that, Sam!
- Me, too! I was so excited to see the waterfall and river. So beautiful!
- Yup! Been fishing my whole life! My dad taught me. We come to these woods every summer.
- What?!
- Huh? You're not serious.
- Cleaned the fish...washed the dishes...
- Oh yeah. Who packed all of the gear? Who set up the fire? Who guided us thru the woods? That's right...ME!
- Wait. Guys...please don't argue. Guys...guys...
- This was YOUR idea! YOU wanted to go camping.
- ADAM! You wouldn't let us help. We tried!
- How could we improve the dialogue in this scene? We have an illustration, so we know what the characters look like? How do they speak? What do they say?
- What happens next? How does Sara help her friends, Adam and Sam, with this argument? What is the solution?
