Unit 12 Characters Journey

Today we looked at our characters journeys throughout the play and before we get on stage. We also did and brief rehearsal but without any words and just when we got on and off stage and we thought about what our characters would wear. The clothes I thought to wear was Black leggings, black top, a white apron, black shoes and a crucifix necklace. The reason why I chose to wear these clothes because I wanted to keep it simple and I thought about what kind of  clothes would waiters wear and I took my own interpretation of it. I chose to wear a crucifix necklace because my character speaks a lot about Jesus so she's very religious. We also looked at the themes of the play and written them down on sheets of paper and put down all the characters and what class they would come under to get a rough idea on how to play out character.


                                                     

Unit 9 Research

Cyber Bullying




Cyber bullying is any form of bullying which takes place online or through smartphones and tablets. Social networking sites, messaging apps, gaming sites and chat rooms such as Facebook, XBox Live, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat and other chat rooms can be great fun and a positive experience. Cyber bullying is rife on the internet and most young people will experience it or see it at some time. In our recent national bullying survey, 56% of young people said they have seen others be bullied online and 42% have felt unsafe online. Cyber bullying can happen 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and it can go viral very fast.







The Effects of Cyber Bullying




For many cyber bullying affects their everyday lives and is a constant source of distress and worry.  With mobile technology being so freely available it is an ongoing issue and one that is relentless.  Not only does it go on after school, college or work has finished, but it then carries through into the next day and the cycle continues.  It has been well documented that cyber bullying has resulted in tragic events including suicide, and self-harm and clearly, more needs to be done in order to protect vulnerable children and adults from online bullying.
