Students study selected mentor artifacts: a one-page monologue, a dialogue scene, a staged scene with directions, and a film-style screenplay excerpt. They note how writers sequence action, introduce character, and build setting for performers and audiences, then identify which structures could anchor different course concepts. Notes are captured on a shared craft board for later use.
