9th November
The aim for this lesson was to have structured and to have a plot for our performance by the end of the lesson.
We made a spider diagram on the board of everyones ideas and contributions to how we should structure our performance:
- Beginning scene - Victim's diary entries
- The bullying starts
- Cyberbullying - a facebook chat conversation with be projected onto the back wall
- Victim becomes paranoid - a vocal college
- Physical abuse - bullying starts to get worse
- side effects/outcome - paranoid, depression, lack of self confidence, suicide, self harm, etc.
-Ending scene - Bully's letters - At funeral

Ideas we had for the ending were that we could use the idea the victims bodies were a crucifix to show that bullying affects many people, and there lives could end in drastic ways because of it. Also we had the idea of using a coffin, to show the audience exactly what we mean, and not using something to resemble death but using an actual coffin.

We then voted as a big group on which scene we wanted to be in, and which we felt we could act best in. I'm in group 4, which is Physical abuse. My group consists of me, April, Alys and Autumn. Going off into our small individual groups we discussed ideas on what to do and started to block our scene.
