Objective: Show how your character responds to a crisis by completing the following tasks: writing, designing, and role-

Task 1: Write a Short Story
1.1 Scenario Creation:
Imagine an accident or emergency involving your character. Answer these questions to help shape your story:
• What is the crisis? (e.g., a fire, car accident, lost in the forest)
• Where does it happen?
• How does your character react emotionally and physically?
• Who else is involved?
• What is the outcome?
1.2 Writing Guidelines:
• Write a short story (100–150 words).
• Use descriptive language to show emotions, actions, and the setting.
• Include dialogue to show the character interacting with others during the crisis.
Example Starter:
"As the flames grew higher, Alex’s heart pounded. She knew she had only minutes to act..."

Task 2: Design a Map or Diagram
2.1 Illustrate the Scene:
Draw a map or diagram of the location where the crisis happens.
• Label key places (e.g., the accident site, exit points, or areas of danger).
• Use arrows to show the character’s movements and actions during the event.
Example Layout:
• A park scene with labeled spots: “Accident Site,” “Help Station,” and “Exit Path.”
• Arrows showing the character’s path from danger to safety.
Task 3: Role-Play and Record a Conversation
3.1 Create a Dialogue:
Imagine your character is seeking help or giving instructions during the crisis. Write a dialogue (8–10 lines) that includes:
• A clear explanation of the problem.
• Questions or requests for help.
• Instructions or responses from another character.
3.2 Rehearsal and Record:
• Pair up with your classmate to role-play the scene.
• Record the conversation using your phone, computer, or other device.
• Speak clearly and use intonation to show emotions.
Example Dialogue:
- Character: “There’s been an accident near the lake. I need help right away!”
- Responder: “Can you tell me what happened and where you are?”
- Character: “A tree fell on the trail near the old bridge. Someone is hurt, and we need assistance!”
Submission Checklist:
Short story completed and edited.
Map or diagram designed and labeled.
Recorded conversation uploaded or shared with the teacher.
Good luck and remember to show how your character’s actions reveal their personality during the crisis!
