This week, I made a lot of progress with my Girl Be Heard piece.

I started out with a completely different idea then what I have now. Actually, I bounced from a million different ideas. But today, sitting down with all of the girls on my team helped a lot. Our ideas bounced off one another and we have a complete idea of what we are doing. We are beginning and ending with 4 lines of a song. We finished composing the beginning of it:

After this, each girl will recite their monologue. What I did to make each of them tie together is assigning them the first line and last line of their monologue. The last line of the monologue will be the first line of another girls', and so on (if that makes sense.) 

We have a 10 minute time slot, so here is my layout of how the performance will go

Start: 4 lines of song (30 seconds)

Shaquilla's Piece (2-3 minutes)

Halle's Piece (2-3 minutes)

Hazel's Piece (2-3 minutes)

Ayonda's Piece (2-3 minutes)

End: 4 lines of song (30 seconds)

I will have a precise plan of the time once I get the finalized drafts of each girl's piece (which I am waiting on now) 

Today, we performed a rough run-through of our piece and I have to say, I am very happy with it and know for a fact we will be prepared by November 2nd.
