When you watched a film clip from Toy Story, you worked on a list of words that describe feelings. The characters in “The Southpaw” are not experiencing the same emotions as Woody. You might say that the two characters are mad or angry at the beginning, but these words are not especially descriptive.
In the MY NOTES space on pages 92, write precise adjectives to describe how the characters are feeling in the first several notes. You may use a thesaurus or an on-line version with the iPods.

Next to notes 1 and 2, write the main conflict of the story.

Number the notes from 1 to 18; now, draw a line under each even numbered note to separate each pair of notes. Think of the exchange of notes in the story as a baseball scoreboard. The first set of notes between Janet and Richard stands for the first ending (1), notes 3 and 4 stand for the second inning (2), and so on. For each pair of notes, decide who is “winning.” Write a 1 on his or her line and 0 on the other character’s line.
Inning 1 (notes

Inning 2 (notes

Circle the closing lines of all of the notes (for example, yours truly). Indicate in the My Notes section each time the closing line change. Next to the last note, explain how all the closing lines help the reader to understand the plot of the story.

Adverbs can describe the way a person says something. For example, you could speak proudly, rudely, kindly, forcefully, hesitatingly, and so on. Next to each note, write an adverb to describe how the writer might say it if he or she were to speak it aloud.
You may want to use a thesaurus or the iPod to help you with a variety of answers.

![Page 13: Play Ball : Part One SpringBoard Level 1 Activity 2.6-2.7.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081515/56649f175503460f94c2e0c3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Dialogue Example
Imagine that “The Southpaw” was written in dialogue format instead of as a series of notes.
Look at notes 11-13. If this were a dialogue it might look like this:
“Richard, I pitch,” Janet stated.“Joel is moving to Kansas and Danny sprained his
wrist. How about a permanent place in the outfield?” Richard asked.
“I pitch!” Janet repeated loudly.

Think-pair-share
With a partner, develop a variety of dialogue tags to replace “he said” or “she said.”
Alternative: ABCs down the side of the page and create a list of synonyms for said. E - Explained
![Page 15: Play Ball : Part One SpringBoard Level 1 Activity 2.6-2.7.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081515/56649f175503460f94c2e0c3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Choose 2
Choose 2 notes to create as dialogue.
Put these on a sheet of paper to be turned in.

Story Starter
In “The Southpaw,” two friends have a disagreement, which they eventually work out. Choose one of the scenarios below and, on the same sheet of paper, write dialogue that shows how the friends disagree but work out, or resolve, their conflict. The resolution is an important part of a short story because it is where the reader learns the outcome of the conflict.
You may change the scenario if you choose. Be sure to use a variety of descriptive dialogue tags from your class list. One friend borrows the other friend’s shirt but returns it with a ketchup
stain. One friend goes to a dance with someone that the other friend doe not
like at all. One friend wants to go to a movie, but the other friend wants to go
skating. A scenario of your own:
Share with a friend once you have finished your dialogue.
