Grade 4 · Writing · Lesson 28

Write Scripts or Dialogues

A script is a written text for a play, film, or radio show. Unlike a story, a script presents the spoken words of characters directly, formatted so actors and directors know exactly who says what and how the scene should look.

What this lesson teaches

1Identify the formatting conventions of a script or dialogue
2Write a short script using character names, stage directions, and dialogue
3Add stage directions and speaker labels to an incomplete dialogue
