This document summarizes the activities of a class called "8B" who studied setting the scene in literature and divided into groups to write, film, and act in short adaptations of opening scenes. It introduces the 4 groups and lists the roles each student took on, such as director, camera operator, scriptwriter, or actor. The class worked hard to film their scenes both at school and outside, and they are now ready to share their movies.

1. "It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot
and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light,
and winter in the shade."
“Great Expectations”, Charles Dickens

2. By the previous extract from “Great
Expectations” we were introduced to “Unit 6”
