Evidence of teen violence and justice

It had a lot of violence and justice for teens. I told my friends to see it, and I saw it twice!

I thought about the play after I saw it.

There is a fight and a trial but there is no reason for the fight and not enough evidence to create a trial.

Didn't make sense to have a fight or a trial. No action, just boring!

Student Effort ( amount of time and energy put into the play)

students cooperate with each other. Student come everyday to class and gives 100%!

Student tries his/her best. Dedicates his/heself to the group.

Doesn't work hard enough. Little effort demonstrated.

Student is lazy and sleeps while others complete the task.Student lacks determination in completing the play!

moral or lesson learned
