      \nA narrative is a recount of past experience or shared experience of the past. In everyday life, we often need to give an account or a report of an event or something that happened in the past, when we do this, we are involved in narration. Note that you make use of the past tense form of verbs a you are reporting an event that has happened. You also make use of the simple and the compound sentence. E.g. i woke` up as early as 4:00am. I completedmy house work by 5:00am and left for school at 7:00am. The underlined words \u2013 work, completed, text are in the past tense.<\/p>\n

Do (I) speeches, which give us the actual words that say. \u2013Before you act the scene in front of an audience, you must rehearse (i.e. practise) several rehearsals to make sure that every actor moves and speak as well as possible.<\/p>\n

      \u00a0EVALUATION: (NOSEC page 181 \u2013 183) \u2013 This is a scene from the play “kurunmi” by Ma Rotimi which is based on events in 1858 which led to the war between Ibadan and Ijaiye…. (Act it out in class).<\/p>\n
