Director | Setting and Summary Project
Differentiated Instruction Mini-Project

Directions: You will choose locations and describe the settings for scenes from stories that we have read.  You will choose seven different scenes and complete the following for each choice:

1.	Summarize the scene.
2.	Describe the setting in the story.
3.	Create a location.  Describe the props and scenery that you will need to complete the setting.
4.	Explain why your choices are important. 

Example from Lord of the Flies:
1.	Summary: In this scene Jack punches Piggy and breaks the lens on his glasses.  He does this because Piggy was yelling at him for letting the fire go out.
2.	In the Story: This takes place near the mountain in the story.
3.	Props / Scenary: Dead pig, spears, mountain, trees, ocean.
4.	Explanations: We will need a dead pig because the boys just came back from hunting and have a pig.  The spears will show that they were hunting.  Also, since this occurs on a mountain and by the ocean, it is important that we shoot near those things.  

Team Up:  Have a partner illustrate five scenes.  Write captions under each illustration summarizing the scene.
