What 1 lesson from this speech can you apply to your own life?

Directions:

Use the narrator’s descriptions to help you draw three Scenes and the characters.

— After you draw each scene, write what the characters talked or thought about.

— If the characters talk to each other, write their conversation in a speech bubble.

— Write a character’s thoughts about anything in a thought bubble.

Example: «If you want to change the world get over being a sugar cookie and keep moving forward.»

«There were many a student who just couldn’t accept the fact that all their effort was in vain… Those students didn’ t under-stand the purpose of the drill. You were never going to suc-ceed. You were never going to have a perfect uniform.»

As you brainstorm the story`s characters, think about which are their main

motivations. Which are their secondary ones?
