Evidence Write a Play Scene
PROMPT
In The Miracle of Spring, a king is angry because people are enjoying the arrival of
Spring instead of working. So, he tries to lock Spring away. The king is then put on trial,
and several animal and plant characters in the courtroom explain what would happen
without Spring.
Choose one of those animal or plant characters. Write a play scene in which the
character retells to his or her family or friends what happened during the trial. Include
the basic elements of a play, such as character names and dialogue, and stage
directions. Don’t forget to use some of the Critical Vocabulary words in your writing.
PLAN
Take notes about events from the trial based on text evidence, in the order
they happened. Make notes, too, about names for the new scene’s characters
and ideas for stage directions.
