In groups of at least four, you are going to write a mini-episode of the series and perform it.
Instructions:

- Decide who your characters are: What are their names, what are their likes and dislikes, what are their ages, what is their background, what brings them together apart from school?
- Think of an event or problem that forces your characters to act.
- Write an episode of 10 minutes at maximum. (If you write in a character size 11, with single spaces and an extra space between clauses, an A4 sheet of paper is about 2 minutes of drama.)
- Learn your texts by heart.
- Act out your episode for the class.
