Movie and Show: Can you spot the similarities and differences?

It's a Venn diagram! For comparing/contrasting!
Today's Goal: Gather evidence of setting, character, and tone from The Bad Beginning by Lemony Snicket.Compare your chart to a partner's chart and improve your own.

The Plan:
  1. Read
  2. The Bad Beginning Count Olaf scene (2004)
  3. Comparison Chart 
  4. use the movie, Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004), to fill in the SECOND COLUMN.
  5. Use the Netflix episode, The Bad Beginning: Part 1 (2017), to fill in the THIRD COLUMN.
TONE: Here's a list of words to describe tone. Which ones apply to each version? Be very careful when choosing your words. Make sure you know the word, and make sure it's the right word.

Note: You have to keep your observations separate. If it happened in one version but not the others, you can only put it in that column. See if you can articulate different things you notice for each

Reminders/Homework:
  • If you need to make revisions to your Homeless Bird Essay:
    • I have a copy of Homeless Bird you can use at brunch and lunch and before school.
    • The Dove Library might have some copies
    • You might be able to use Google to find the quotes you're looking for. Sometimes Googling "Homeless Bird PDF" works. I haven't tried it for this book, yet. Don't sign up for things.
  • Try to fill in as much as you can of your comparison chart using the PDF on Google Classroom. (If you're absent to watch the video, I can pull you in during advisory sometime this week.)
  • READ A BOOK
