Cape Fear Academy

My mom is a 6th/7th grade teacher at Cape Fear Academy and she was excited when I asked about getting interviews/ footage of her students. She said it would be great to come in one day to all her Launguage Arts classes. She can make a form for the parents to sign saying it's okay to film their children. I think it would be interesting to get a perspective from pre teens about what it means to be male/female, what they think expectations are for each, steriotypes, their interactions w/ the opp sex, just a wide variety of things...

Oh yeah. This is such an uncomfortable age. A perfect time to ask them about these things. Even as simple as "What's it like to be a boy?" "What's it like to be a girl?" The answer you get would be so telling.

I asked my friend if her and some of her high school friends might like to do interviews. I said to try and diversify the crowd as much as possible. Anyway, I think we have some strong footing.
