Good Morning!
I am looking for the script, Akeelah and the Bee. Can anyone tell me what publishing company would have this script? I have searched for it through Google without luck.
Anyone have any other script suggestions for the middle school level that are more diverse in nature? I would love to create a diversity of voices for my classroom to hear!
Thank you!
