Using a script to create and perform a role {Assessment task}

Drama is all about people and their stories. We are going to work on creating a role.
Choose a script - there are open scripts and books available. You can look for your own but check it's suitability. Put  your script on your blog, your device/phone, copy it onto paper, print it out .You need to LEARN the words – start by reading them aloud 10 times.
Role on the Wall - what do you know about your character? Use the questions below to create a picture of your character. You can "draw" a role on the wall  OR do short answers to the questions Or a combination. Use your imagination.
    Who am I? Eg: I am a 14 year old girl, I feel awkward and I wear lots of layers of clothes to cover my freckled skin, even at the beach. I have grown a lot this year and I feel clumsy.. I am shy.
    What are my given circumstances {what do I KNOW }? 
    Eg: This is the first time I have invited to go anywhere with the other girls. I have just started at a new school because my family has shifted to Christchurch.
    What are my relationships? Eg: I am at the beach and I hate the beach because it is cold and windy and sand gets in your food. I don't know the other people very well. They are in my class at school.
    What is my objective? Why? eg: I want the others to like me because I need friends.

    What must I overcome? This is the problem that is stopping you from getting your objective; this is what you need to overcome to reach your goal.
    I am shy and I don’t know what to talk about.
    What is my action? This is what you do to overcome your obstacle and attempt to reach your goal.
    Eg: I smile a lot and try and copy the way the others talk and move so I fit in better.
