Social Studies

For the last week and a bit my group and I have come up with questions for our two topics we have chosen, and started researching some of our questions.

We have written down the sources from where we collected our information from. Lenora has been researching a different topic we chose and Kiarn and I have been researching another topic. We our now starting to come up with ideas for presentation and taking some more notes down.

How to act? (drana)

19.10.17

1) Roll on the wall

2) Feel what the characters feeling

3) Visualize yourself in the characters position.

 In into the woods is a movie based on different kinds of fairy tales the one character that interests me the most is the witch because  the witches one desire is to be young and beautiful again, her objective is to have power and be young forever.
The witch is very needy and desperate to get what she wants because she knows this is her only chance to become young again until the next 100 years.
She wheres dark clothing  and has a very messy hair style, her clothes are very old,  ripped and drags down her body. The way the character acts is very needy she frustrated and I like the way her look goes with her character, this witch seems very manipulative and a bit creepy at times.
