Transcript


00:0-1	Kids Educational Games Hello and welcome to the course on
00:05	writing , poem , drama and pros . I'm Steven's
00:09	mom , and we're playing a game to understand three
00:12	forms of writing poem , drama and prose . Today
00:18	I'll tell you how to properly use grammar in sentences
00:21	. By the end of this course , you will
00:23	be able to define Poem and its structural elements .
00:27	Defined drama and its structural elements define pros and its
00:32	structural elements identify the major differences between the three forms
00:36	of writing , poem , drama and prose . The
00:39	course is divided into three sections . After each section
00:43	, you'll be required to complete an activity rhyme and
00:46	poem concepts in drama Constructing pros . Mom , I'm
00:56	confused about the difference between a poem and other writing
01:00	. Why is one so small with such short sentences
01:03	, while the others air so long ? My teacher
01:06	asked me to write a poem for a school assignment
01:09	. How could I do it ? You are absolutely
01:12	right , son . However , there are many more
01:15	differences between the various forms of text . Let's start
01:18	with a poem and understand it in detail . If
01:23	you keep on going and never stop , you can
01:26	keep on going . You can make it to the
01:28	top . Life is full of mountains , Some are
01:32	big and some are small . But if you don't
01:34	give up , you can overcome them all . So
01:38	keep on going . Try not to stop . When
01:41	you keep on going , you can make it to
01:43	the top . Wow , Mom , Was that a
01:47	poem ? I wanna learn how to write a poem
01:50	just like that one . Yes , son , that
01:53	was a poem . I'll show you how to write
01:55	a poem . The first element of a poem is
01:59	rhyme . Poems have words that sound similar and appear
02:03	a the end of the line . The rhymes may
02:05	come in lines one after the other or in alternate
02:09	lines . Now let's look at another important element of
02:13	a poem . The stanza Ah , stanza is a
02:17	collection of lines that have a pattern and a rhyme
02:20	. This poem has three stanzas and is highlighted in
02:24	three different colors . Mom , if I write a
02:28	poem with these two elements , will my teacher be
02:31	happy with my assignment ? Of course , son .
02:34	But there is one more important element of a poem
02:37	that you must learn about . Let's look at that
02:39	now . Making comparisons . Making comparisons is achieved by
02:43	using symbols in the poem Don't give up . Life
02:48	is full of mountains means that in our lives we
02:51	may have to face many problems and obstacles . It
02:54	doesn't mean riel mountains . Also , if we keep
02:58	working hard and face the obstacles , we will achieve
03:01	our goal . Just like reaching a mountaintop . Isn't
03:05	that right , son ? Yes , Mom . Even
03:08	if I happen to face problems , I will work
03:11	to achieve my goals . Right now , I'll work
03:14	hard to write a poem on my own . Let's
03:17	complete an exercise to check your understanding of a poem
03:21	. Drag the leaves to the matching basket . Stop
03:26	Small run , Brad . Uh huh . Dad .
03:31	Fine again . Uh huh . That stop job small
03:50	. Ah , fun ! Run that rat again ,
04:01	hen . Congratulations . You have collected five stars for
04:06	answering the questions correctly . Are you ready to proceed
04:09	to the next level of writing ? Let's begin .
04:13	Mom is my favorite text . The Happy Prince .
04:16	Also a poem . No , sweetheart The Happy Prince
04:20	as an example of a drama . What is the
04:23	drama ? A drama is written to be performed on
04:27	stage for an audience . It usually consists of dialogue
04:31	between two or more people and at times a description
04:34	of the scene . So how is the happy prince
04:38	of drama ? I'll show what a drama is .
04:41	Let's read . The Happy Prince Son . The Happy
04:50	Prince , by Oscar Wilde , is a very popular
04:53	drama . It starts with a narration or description of
04:56	the play . Narration is used to introduce what's coming
05:00	, and it also sets the context . Let's read
05:03	the narration for this drama to understand Mawr . The
05:08	play is based in an old town where , on
05:11	a tall column stood the statue of the Happy Prince
05:14	. He was gilded all over with thin leaves of
05:17	fine gold for eyes . He had to bright sapphires
05:21	and a large red ruby glowed on his sword hilt
05:25	. Therefore , narration is usually needed to describe the
05:28	setting of a scene , so this means a description
05:32	of what is happening . Yes , you're correct .
05:36	Is the prince alone in the play ? No sweetie
05:40	, their arm or characters in the play . But
05:42	the most important characters are The Happy Prince and the
05:45	Swallow . This is similar to your favorite cartoon ,
05:49	Tom and Jerry . There are many characters , but
05:52	the focus of the story is on Tom and Jerry
05:56	, and you know people who play the role of
05:58	characters . Air called actors . Okay , an actor
06:03	is a person that plays different characters . Yes .
06:07	Now let's start reading this drama and bring examples to
06:10	identify other features of a drama . Now listen .
06:15	One night there flew over the city a little swallow
06:19	. It was night , so he alighted just between
06:22	the feet of the happy Prince to rest . Just
06:25	then , a drop of water fell on him .
06:28	He flew up to the face of the statue and
06:31	saw that happy Prince was weeping . The swallow asks
06:35	. Why are you weeping , my prince , the
06:38	prince replies . When I was alive and had a
06:41	human heart , I did not know what tears were
06:44	for . I lived in the palace of Sand Soucy
06:47	, where sorrow is not allowed to enter In the
06:49	daytime , I played with my companions in the garden
06:52	Andan the evening I lead the dance in the great
06:54	hall round . The garden ran a very lofty wall
06:57	, but I never cared to ask what laid beyond
06:59	it . Everything about me was so beautiful . My
07:02	courtiers called me the happy Prince and happy . Indeed
07:05	I waas if pleasure be happiness . So I lived
07:08	and so I died . Now that I am dead
07:10	. They have set me up here so high that
07:12	I can see all the ugliness on all the misery
07:15	of my city . On though my heart is made
07:17	of lead . Yet I cannot choose but weep .
07:21	Did you see the Happy Prince and the swallow we're
07:24	talking ? This is what is called a dialogue .
07:29	Yes , Mom , the Swallow and the Prince are
07:31	talking to each other . Very good . A dialogue
07:35	is a conversation between two or more people in a
07:39	drama . The lines are spoken by characters . For
07:42	example , in The Happy Prince , the lines are
07:45	spoken by the Happy Prince and the swallow . Let's
07:49	see other features of a drama , the prince said
07:53	. Far away in a little street , there is
07:55	a poor house . One of the windows is open
07:58	on through it , I can see a woman seated
08:00	at a table . She is embroidering passion flowers on
08:02	a setting gown for the loveliest of the queen's maid
08:05	of honor toe , where the next court ball in
08:08	a bed in the corner of the room , her
08:09	little boy is lying ill . He has a fever
08:11	and is asking for oranges . His mother has nothing
08:14	to give him but river water . So he is
08:16	crying . Swallow , swallow little swallow . Will you
08:19	not bring her the ruby out of my sword ?
08:21	Hilt ? My feet are fastened to this pedestal that
08:23	I cannot move . The swallow said I am waited
08:27	for in Egypt by my friends . The prince requests
08:32	swallow please help me and the bird agrees to help
08:35	him . So the swallow picked out the great Ruby
08:39	from the Princes sword and flew to give it to
08:42	the woman . She came back to the prince to
08:44	stay for one more night , son in a drama
08:49	there are acts and scenes . Do you know what
08:52	acts and scenes are ? No . I understand what
08:56	you just read , but I don't know the meaning
08:59	of an act or seen an act or seen is
09:02	a smaller section of a drama . For example ,
09:05	in the Happy Prince . One act or seen is
09:08	when the swallow is talking to the prince and the
09:11	other act or scene is where the swallow gives the
09:13	ruby to the woman like in a movie . Now
09:16	there are more scenes or acts to come in this
09:19	place . So listen carefully . The next morning ,
09:22	the swallow woke up , the swallow says . Today
09:26	I'll go to Egypt , the prince says , Swallow
09:30	, Please stay with me for one more night ,
09:32	the swallow says . My friends await me in Egypt
09:37	, the prince says . Far away , across the
09:39	city , I see a young man in a garret
09:41	. He is leaning over a desk covered with papers
09:44	on in a tumbler by his side . There is
09:46	a bunch of withered violets . His hair is brown
09:48	and crisp , and his lips are red is a
09:50	pomegranate . Andi has large , dreamy eyes . He
09:53	is trying to finish a play for the director of
09:55	the theater , but he is too cold to write
09:57	anymore . There is no fire in the grate on
09:59	hunger has made him faint . The swallow says I
10:03	will stay with you one more night . Shall I
10:05	give one ruby to the man ? The prince says
10:09	. Alas , I have no ruby now , my
10:11	eyes , Airil , that I have left . They're
10:13	made of rare sapphires . Pluck out one of them
10:15	and take it to him . The swallow plucks it
10:19	and takes it to the man . Then the swallow
10:22	flies back to the happy prince and sleeps . The
10:25	next morning , the swallow flies to the harbor and
10:28	sets on the mast . The swallow speaks Tonight I
10:33	fly to Egypt . Then the swallow returns back to
10:36	the happy Prince to bid Good bye . The prince
10:40	speaks . Swallow , swallow little swallow . Please stay
10:43	with me one night longer The swallow replies . It
10:48	is winter and the chill snow will soon be here
10:51	in Egypt . The sun is warm on the green
10:54	palm trees and the crocodiles lie in the mud and
10:57	look lazily about Um my companions are waiting for me
11:01	there . The prince speaks in the square below .
11:05	There stands a little match girl . She has let
11:08	her matches fall in the gutter and they are all
11:10	spoiled . Her father will beat her if she does
11:12	not bring home some money . And she is crying
11:15	. She has no shoes or stockings on her little
11:17	head is bare . Pluck out my other eye and
11:20	give it to her that her father will not beat
11:22	her . The swallow replies I will stay with you
11:26	one night longer , but I cannot pluck out your
11:29	eye . You would be quite blind . Then the
11:32	prince says , Swallow , swallow little swallow . Do
11:35	as I command you . So the swallow plucked out
11:38	the princes other eye and darted down with it .
11:41	He swooped past the match girl and slipped the jewels
11:45	into the palm of her hand . Then the swallow
11:49	came back to the prince . The swallow says You
11:53	are blind now , so I will stay with you
11:56	always , the prince replies . No little swallow .
12:01	You must go away to Egypt . The swallow says
12:05	. I will stay with you always . Then the
12:09	swallow slept at the princes feet . The next day
12:12	, he sat on the princes shoulder and told him
12:15	stories of what he had seen in strange lands .
12:19	The prince says , Dear little swallow , you tell
12:22	me of marvelous things . But more marvelous than anything
12:24	is the suffering of men and of women . There
12:27	is no mystery so great as misery . Fly over
12:29	my city , little swallow and tell me what you
12:31	see . There I am covered with fine gold .
12:34	You must take it off , leaf by leaf and
12:36	give it to my poor . The living . Always
12:38	think that gold could make them happy . The swallow
12:42	said goodbye . Dear Prince , the prince replies ,
12:47	I'm glad that you are going to Egypt at last
12:50	. Little swallow . You have stayed too long .
12:51	Here the swallow said it is not to Egypt that
12:55	I am going . I am going to the house
12:59	of death . After saying this , the swallow fell
13:03	dead on the princes feet at that moment Ah ,
13:06	curious crack sounded inside the statue as if something had
13:11	broken . The fact is that the leaden heart had
13:15	snapped Right into the next day , the statue of
13:19	the prince was pulled down from heaven . The God
13:23	was watching this God said to his angels Bring me
13:27	the two most precious things in the city . The
13:31	angel brought him the leaden heart and the dead bird
13:34	. God said you have rightly chosen for in my
13:37	garden of paradise this little birds will sing forevermore And
13:41	in my city of gold the happy prince shall praise
13:44	me . That was a very nice play . Can
13:49	you tell me more about drama ? Yes , son
13:52	. A drama is performed for an audience . So
13:55	onstage the actors performed the scene and it happens for
13:59	a set of people who watch it live Now do
14:02	you understand how a drama is different from a poem
14:06	? Yes . We do not see any rhyming words
14:09	in the happy Prince , Right ? Mom ? Yes
14:12	, son . Also , there were no stanzas .
14:15	Instead , there were dialogues . Wow , Mom ,
14:19	there is so much to learn about a drama .
14:22	Yes , son , it's great that you remember the
14:25	differences . Now let's take a quiz so that you
14:28	remember what you learned about a drama . Check your
14:33	understanding of a drama state . If the following sentences
14:37	are true or false , a drama or a play
14:41	has rhyming words false . That's correct . An act
14:52	or seen is a smaller section of a play .
15:00	True , that's correct . Two actors talking on stage
15:07	is called a dialogue or a conversation . True ,
15:19	that's correct . A drama is not performed on stage
15:30	. False . That's correct . A drama has an
15:35	occasional description of the scene . True , that's correct
15:48	. Congratulations . You have collected another five stars .
15:51	You have 10 in all . Are you ready to
15:55	proceed to the next form of writing ? Let's continue
16:00	now . We will read about pros , Son ,
16:03	The last form of writing . We will discuss his
16:06	prose . Let's now find out about prose by exploring
16:10	the solar system as an example . Son , Did
16:16	you know prose is another form of writing , apart
16:19	from a poem and a drama ? Oh , is
16:23	it ? Yes , The primary purpose of prose is
16:27	to share information . Let's see how son , you
16:32	have this wonderful lesson on our solar system in your
16:35	book . Let's read it , shall we , son
16:44	? The book reads The sun . Nine planets ,
16:47	satellites and other celestial bodies from the solar system ,
16:51	the stars , the planets , the moon and many
16:54	other objects in the sky are called celestial object .
16:59	The objective of this statement was to inform us about
17:02	the solar system . Let's read ahead in the book
17:07	. The sun is the center of the solar system
17:09	. It is huge and is made up of extremely
17:13	hot gasses . The sun is the ultimate source of
17:16	heat and light for the solar system , but that
17:19	tremendous heat is not felt so much by us .
17:23	Because the sun is about 150 million kilometers , or
17:27	93 million miles away from the Earth , son ,
17:31	the word pros comes from a Latin word prosaic ,
17:35	meaning straightforward prose . Writing usually has free flowing speech
17:40	. Examples of pros are magazines , books , essays
17:44	and letters . Pros follows standard rules of sentence structure
17:49	. For example , a new article on a tennis
17:52	match is a pros , and it gives us information
17:55	about what happened in the game . You're doing an
17:59	incredible job . Hey , look here . There are
18:02	nine planets in our solar system in order of their
18:06	distance from the sun . They are mercury , Venus
18:10	, earth , Mars , Jupiter , Saturn , Uranus
18:15	, Neptune and plateau . All the nine planets of
18:19	the solar system move around the sun in fixed paths
18:22	called orbit . Now tell me , do you think
18:25	of prose follows basic grammar rules ? I think so
18:31	. You're right . Pros follows standard rules of grammar
18:35	, punctuation , capitalization and sentence structure . Look how
18:40	all the planet names start with a capital letter .
18:44	Pros is the language of everyday speech . Pros can
18:47	also be a story , either fiction or nonfiction .
18:51	A single sentence is not treated as a single unit
18:54	. Lines are gathered together in paragraphs . Let's now
19:02	complete the final activity on what you just learned about
19:05	pros State . If the following sentences are true or
19:09	false , the main purpose of prose is to give
19:12	information . True , that's correct . Pros does not
19:24	follow any rules of grammar , punctuation , capitalization or
19:29	sentence structure . False . That's correct . Essays and
19:42	letters are examples of prose . True , that's correct
19:54	. Congratulations . You have collected another five stars for
19:58	answering the questions correctly . Now you have 15 in
20:02	total . Son , can you tell the difference between
20:07	different styles of writing now ? Yes , Mom .
20:11	I can now tell all my friends about the differences
20:14	between a poem , a drama and a pros .
20:17	Thanks , Mom . So tell me , what are
20:22	the important structural elements of a poem ? A right
20:27	be stanza . See comparison D all the above .
20:39	De all of the above . That's correct . How
20:44	can you define drama ? A . A performance on
20:48	the stage for an audience ? Be any story .
