Comparison between two scenes

Hi guys,

today we worked on the 2nd extract from the movie "Ruby Bridges" and you analysed the similarities and the differences. Here is what you could have said:

She is brave / determined whereas she was scared.
The wall was clean whereas now it's covered in graffitti and tomato. Someone is throwing tomatoes at Ruby. 
The angry mob are separated from the girl but Ruby is still escorted by four US marshals. 
She is alone. She is wearing a white dress and a white ribbon. She is carrying her school things. 

Vocabulary:

- the focus is on the girl
- hair style / escorted by / determined
- angry mob / protest / nigger
- KKK = Ku Klux Klan (a racist cult)
- throw
- marshal
- façade / steps / stairs / barrier

 

Grammar:
Quand on peut observer une action (voir, entendre, ...) -> on met des "lunettes" au verbe pour le conjuguer = BE + ING

WHEREAS = mot de l'opposition = "alors que..."

--------------------------

Correction for Nawel's group:

The little girl is escorted by 4 US marshals but she is not with her mother. In this extract there are barriers to protect her from the angry mob. She is not wearing the same dress (the colour is not the same). On the wall, it's written KKK and we can hear her thoughts about the situation. She is brave and determined in the part whereas in the 1st extract she was scared.
