I Need Suggestions For Characters In Our Speech-in-character Project.

What do you suggest for the 4th Project in my Toastmasters Interpretive Reading Manual?

Well, I am a TM and thank GOD I didn't select this manual...sounds grueling...

What if you did something entitled, "Spectator" and you played 2-3 different people sitting in the stands, watching some type of sports game?

I will doing my 5th speech out of the first manual tomorrow AND the 6th speech and I'm doing one like this...

Just TODAY, though I happened upon a theater that is auditioning for Steel Magnolias. I want to do it, but the character that I'm best suited for is the salon owner...I don't know if I could remember THAT MUCH dialogue!

Good luck to you!

What is the best way to visually represent characters from a book?

Okay, I have a project that I am doing for school, and I have to have a visual representation for certain characters of a book. I can't draw at all, and its hard to make something out of clay or paper mache. What do you think I can do for a visual representation?

Julius Caesar help please!!!!! (about characters & making a poster)?

http://www.cliffsnotes.com has a character map for Julius Ceasar as a list of characters and synopsis of the play. Mark Antony's Friends Romans and Country man speech is probably one of the more famous quotes from the play and of course Julius Ceasar saying Et tu Brutus, then fall Ceasar is a pretty familiar quote. One of the characters talks about another having a lean hungry look. That one is pretty popular as well.
Good Luck

Eulogy of a Cartoon Character

The speech must have the following in any order:
Time limit: 1 1/2 to 2 minutes long
1. Biographical information-family members (mom, dad, brother, sister, wife, husband, and kids)
2. Life history-what did they do for a living, what were they well known for (employment-wise) and did they make the news for anything they may have done (appropriate)?
3. Personality-describe it as you knew them
4. Personal story-how did you meet them? Or what did you do with this person? Or what do you know about them that maybe others do not know? (it can be humorous, but appropriate)
5. How are they going to be missed?
6. What did you learn from this person? What one thing would you like to try to be like them in (for example helped others)?

How many words are 200 characters?

My career was a teacher of 5–6th graders. I had them write short reports of 200 words. Two hundred characters words depending on the font, 12 or 14, takes about twenty lines. How many words are in 200 characters? I would say about 40 words given each word as 4–5 characters. The average word is between 5 and six characters. Therefore, I would estimate that 200 characters would make about 33 words to 37 words depending oh the length of the words. If a lot of small words are used, perhaps 40 words could make 200 characters.

What is the role of family in character building?

One day a teacher began his class with an empty jar and a few things in his hands. At first jar was empty. Then teacher filled it with rocks asked student if it was full. All of them replied yes. Then he filled it with pebbles and asked the same question, answer was same. Then he added sand and repeated the question, answer was same, jar was full.In all the cases jar was full, so what made difference?Let us see the jar as our life. Rocks as our family members. Pebbles as our close friends and relatives. Sand is just the rest of the people we know. They have to come in life the way things came into jar. Our character gets built the way people enter and the way they create an impact on our life. It all together builds our character.Family members are like rocks, play crucial role. Family makes future of child, family stay with you no matter how hard life becomes, family celebrates with you and family makes better society!

I don't understand what direct comment from the narrator means and 2 other?

The book starts with the narrator. What the characters are speaking are in quotations. Then the narrator gives a description and you have to track who it is. Comment from other characters is how they treat each other and how they perceive each other. Description of their speech is about what is going on and what they are feeling when they are speaking. Action is about how they survive and who is leading and supporting in the group and what they do to have such power.

Direct comments from Wiki Answers
The narrator described Piggy.... "He was shorter than the fair boy and very fat." Jack is described physically... "His face was crumpled and freckled, and ugly without silliness." Simon is described by the narrator... "He was a small, skinny boy, his chin pointed, and his eyes so bright they had deceived Ralph into thinking him delightfully gay and wicked." Ralph is described initially as being... "He was old enough, twelve years and a few months, to have lost the prominent tummy of childhood; and not yet old enough for adolescence to have made him awkward. You could see that he might make a boxer, as far as width and heaviness of shoulders went, but there was a mildness about his mouth and eyes that proclaimed no devil."

Movies that portray communication disorders? (stuttering/brain injury/stroke, etc)?

I need to find a movie that portrays a child or adult with any kind of communication disorder (voice, speech, language) for a class project. (NOT The King's Speech, please!) I've found one called "Regarding Henry" where Harrison Ford gets shot in the head, but I thought I'd see if there are any others I could choose from!
