Presentation transcript:

English II—September 17, 2015 Daily Warm-up: Dialogue in a story serves three main purposes: 1. It Should Drive the Story Forward 2. It Should Characterize 3. It Should Provide Information Analyze the following piece of dialogue, and discuss how it serves all three purposes. "What's the capital of Spain?" Jerry asked, pausing over his crossword puzzle. Susan looked up from her book and rolled her eyes. "Madrid, duh." "Why are you so sarcastic all the time?” Jerry slammed his pencil on table. He looked like he was going to cry. “I don't think I can take much more of this."

10 Tips for Writing Dialogue As we watch the video, take notes on the ten tips.

Narrative Pacing Narrative pacing refers to the speed at which a narrative moves. A writer slows pacing with more details and longer sentences. Fewer details and shorter sentences have the effect of increasing the pace.

Dialogue, Narration, and Pacing As we watch the video, take notes on the different types of pacing.

Narrative Pacing SLOW - FAST -

Pick One David Matthews While reading, note changes in pace How does sentence structure (simple, compound, complex, compound-complex) impact narrative pacing?

Types of Sentences TypeWhat is it made up of?Example Simple Compound Complex Compound Complex

If you are what you eat, then what am I? Underline examples of characterization as we read. Where do you see direct characterization? What can you guess about the characters from indirect characterization?

If you are what you eat, then what am I? What pacing do you see in the essay? Find 5 or more words or phrases that refer to one of the five senses. Make a list of positive synonyms you could for these words. How would these substitutions change the story?

Clauses vs. Phrases

Varying Sentence Beginnings Sentence BeginningsExampleExamples from Texts Begin with a word. Begin with a phrase. Begin with a clause.
