A+Series+of+Unfortunate+Events+-+The+Bad+Beginning

We've been reading Lemony Snicket's "A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Bad Beginning" in class. We enjoy this so much that some students have even chosen to complete their author studies on "Lemony Snicket." He writes his books in such smooth, lyrical syntax and we find ourselves seamlessly enveloped into the world of the Baudelaire orphans upon reading a single line of the book.

Students will be working collaboratively to take on the characteristics of Count Olaf, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny. After adopting these characterisitics, students will apply this perspective to an invented scene.

Each group will CHOOSE a new scenario in which to place their characters. Groups of students will look upon their invented scene to think of how their character would behave if immersed in this scene.

Groups will then write scripts for their characters and will plan the events of their scene to be FILMED! Students will organize their props and design their backdrop for their scene in art with Mrs. Ramey!

Mrs. Scott, our fabulous music teacher, is excited about the opportunity to help us create original compositions to accompany our movies. The music we'll create will mirror the tone of each movie. Can you believe that YOU will each be an original musical composer?

With the help of Mrs. Emmerich, students will then be filmed acting out their scenes and interacting with their props and then will use Windows Moviemaker to edit these scenes, set them to music, and record their narration. All of these final films will be uploaded right here to this very page for all students to enjoy!

Stay tuned!
