LORD OF THE FLIES - by Elizabeth Restivo

Ms. Restivo’s 9th grade English students were transformed into screenwriters, actors, and directors when they performed parts of the novel LORD OF THE FLIES. Each student group chose a chapter in the book to adapt for “the screen" - writing a screenplay, casting the parts, rehearsing their actors, and finally filming the final performances. Special thanks to the Science Dept.’s Mr. Henderson for lending the students his real conch shell as a prop -  and supplying one of the most famous symbols in American literature.  Kudos to our Rosenblatt High School's future filmmakers!
