SCRIPT FOR THE FALL

9/6/2016

0 Comments

 

Middle schoolers face a tornado of questions every day. What do I wear? What if I wear the wrong thing? What is she wearing? What do I look like? Stop looking at me!

Hoodie examines image and appearance in the vignette style and poses what may be the most difficult question of all – Do I stay in the clump or do I stand alone?

I have already made copies of the script for class.  If you lose your copy, it is your responsibility to re-print a new copy.  You can download the file here.  You MUST bring your script with you to class every day.  NO SCRIPT = NO POINTS.
