Lesson 5 ­ speech.notebook June 16, 2020 Do you remember this part of the story? It's when Shaun brings The Lost Thing home to his parents. We're now going to read two different conversations between the characters at this point in the story. You need to decide which conversation is the better one and why. 4

Lesson 5 ­ speech.notebook June 16, 2020 Conversation 1 "What is that?" exclaimed mum. "It's The Lost Thing," replied Shaun. "Well it can't stay here," stated mum. "It could have a disease," remarked dad. "I don't have a disease," cried The Lost Thing. "Please let him stay," begged Shaun. "No! He must go," shouted dad. 5

Lesson 5 ­ speech.notebook June 16, 2020 Conversation 2 "What is that unusual contraption lurking behind the sofa?"asked mum, suspiciously as she peered into the darkness. "He's called The Lost Thing." Shaun replied ginger - he was beginning to feel apprehensive. "I found him all alone on the beach, so I brought him home." "Well, he can't stay here," mum said decisively. She glanced down at The Lost Thing's feet. "His feet are filthy! Look at all those stains on my nice clean carpet." "Your mum is right," dad chimed in as he rose out of his chair. "For all we know, it could be carrying a terrible disease." "Of course he's not carrying a disease," remarked Shaun, sounding a lot more sure than he actually was. "I'm not a carrier of germs, that I can assure you," whispered The Lost Thing (it was much more hurt by the words than he appeared). "I would be so grateful if you would let me stay." 6

Conversation two is better because the dialogue is longer; there aren't so many short sentences. Furthermore, there is more description between the dialogue of how the characters are speaking and what they are doing. This means that the reader can picture the scene more easily. 7
