• Went over new chapter 9 in detail with many examples. Students are assigned to pick a project on page 97 and do it as an individual. Additionally, students are required to write up 3 to 5 characters based on all the information described in the chapter. It was recommended that they go to Olustee and speak with reenactors or use a video that has great special features, which explain how actors develop their charactors.
