Forgot to charge and bring my camera or there would be a photo here of some outstanding actors delivering the great lines they wrote today. Two grade five and one grade six class write with me in the morning and in the afternoon. It's already day three of this Ontario Artist in Education sponsored week. Day three is always dialogue one of my favourite activities. I pair the young writers and they collaborate on one of three scenarios involving (usually) a young person trying to talk an adult into something.
It's interesting how the parents respond. In these skits they always seem to cave in and the young person wins. Is this wishful thinking or do all adults allow their kids to have dragons and aliens as pets?

That reminds me...Mom can I keep my pet alien dragon in your garage?
Only if you promise to feed him, clean up after him and walk him.
Or
I've always wanted to have a pet alien dragon--ask your father. If he says yes you can keep him.
(some lines from today)
