the time, place, and characters

2) READ one line of literate, compelling dialogue on its own screen

3) EXPLORE content based on curriculum materials, goals, and objectives and

4) WRITE their own 12-line scene inspired by the scene they’ve just read.


The apps are interactive and at the end of each scene, there is a call to action for students and
users to write their own 12-line scene, using the characters and circumstances as a starting
point.
