What is the best thing that ever happened to you while shooting? What do you love about directing/acting? What areas would you like to explore in the future? How will your project be valuable for future students? What is an important part of the game making process? AND you must answer at least one of these questions (connection to Hollis): How can art help someone who is going through a rough time? Can art bring people together? How?

Make an INFERENCE!
Use clues from the reading AND background knowledge to answer the following question: At the end of Chapter Two, Hollis says, "I thought about Steven and the Old Man and Izzy and I put my hand on my chest because there was such an ache inside." At the end of Chapter Three, Hollis says, "Why did I have to mess everything up?" Make an INFERENCE! Why do you think Hollis aches inside? What do you think she messed up and WHY? Think deeply and write an insightful, 1-2 paragraph post. Check for simple errors, if there are too many it will not be posted! |
