Script Writing (continued).

Ensure that your script has sufficiently developed your characters, is limited in the number of settings you use, employs stage directions effectively, and is satisfactorily resolved by its end.  When your draft is complete, have another student read it, obtain their feedback, proofread and edit.

When complete submit your file to the 'Submit' folder on the school network.
