1. Children’s TV Show
Reflexives OPT

2. Your group of THREE to FOUR will be working in class the next several days to produce a live children’s TV show…
As long as all the requirements are met, you may set up your show however you want. But the easiest way to do the show would be to narrate and act out the daily routine of a kid or cartoon character.
At least 30 correctly conjugated reflexive verbs. UNDERLINE and number the verbs in your script. Verbs may be repeated once—that means at least 15 different verbs. Turn in your script when you present.
A variety of grammar structures and other vocabulary.
Relevant props and/or costumes that enhance the performance.
Authentic engagement. Scripts are optional during the presentation, but you will not get a 100 if you have your script with you (you may still get a high ‘A’ if your presentation is superb).
Everyone should have (more or less) equal lines, roles and participation.
Presentations start Thursday, April 30 and finish on Friday, May 1.
Major grade—everyone gets the same grade unless there are members with participation issues.
