This episode of GED Connection is about drama. Plays, film and television are all forms of drama. In drama, stories are told through actions and spoken word called dialogue, and all drama starts with a written script. On the GED Language Arts Reading Test you'll be asked to read and answer questions about a passage from a script. This program explores the unique format of scripts and what to look for when you read them. The majority of the program takes a look at a GED playwright class where the students are reading and writing scripts. The various formats of the script such as dialogue, stage directions, cast of characters, and description of setting are all discussed. We also take a look at a group of actors as they perform a scene from George Bernard Shaw's play "Heartbreak Hotel." It is important to know about the elements of drama for the GED test, questions may be about the setting, the plot, and the characters. Questions on the test may also be about deeper meanings such as theme, the motivation, or the conflict.
