Cooperative Learning:
Okay from what you already know, and learned now tell me if you had to put on a play what kind of play would it be, and what would be involved in putting on your play?

Here is a topic: that you can work on “if you see something say something” Now if this was the name of your play what monologue/dialogue would you expect or write for this play?

"If You See Something Say Something"
Two guys walk into a bar, a blood drenched groaning man pass them. The two talk amongst themselves to figure out what they should do. The two men decide to tell a near by cop about the strange blood stained man. The cop reluctantly goes over to the man after finishing his beer. The officer goes over to the bloodstained man to question him. The bloodstained man then bites the officer, biting a huge chunk of the officer's flesh out, ripping it. Blood were gushing down as the officer tries to cover up the bitten area as blood continually pour out of it. And the two men pointed out and mumbled, "If you see something, say something." P.S. - Why does cops always die when you call on them?

Will Smith (George) - Guy 2
Vin Diesel (Me) - Cop, get bitten. :( (I still don't know why I am named after this actor. -_-)
