  1. Hi Ann!

    Nice plan, are you planning to use it in our class?

  2. I might. Did it with my class last year. It is a good movie/book!

  3. Hi! My English teacher also made us work on in Cold Blood and I enjoyed it.

    I was thrilled by the movie and Capote’s life that I made a pearltrees about it.
