Synopsis Draft 2

Bob walks past the SLC classroom where paired reading is going on. He stops briefly and looks into the classroom. He goes to walk inside but decides against it. He then takes a deep breath and walks inside. Mrs Brown shows him to the seat next to Grace and he sits down. He’s apprehensive, not wanting to say much, but Grace smiles and says how she used to be bad at reading but got better with help from teachers. This calms him down and makes him comfortable. Grace then opens the book on the table and Bob starts reading.

After the paired reading, Bob walks out of the classroom and the bullies see him and make fun of him. He is about to lash out when Grace comes out and tells the bullies to go to lesson. She then smiles at Bob and then carries on walking.

Bob is walking down a corridor when the bullies start calling him names and making fun of him. He tries to ignore them, but they start shoving him. He eventually shouts and hits them.
Grace walks down the corridor and sees the fight. Bob sees her and looks ashamed.

Bob is lying on the grass outside school when Grace comes past. They talk for a bit, Grace says that she was doing work and Bob says that he had detention, then Grace lies down next to him. They talk again and Bob reveals his interest in astronomy.

Bob is sitting in the SLC holding a small book as Grace enters and sits next to him. She gets a book about astronomy out of her bag and they read that instead of the book Bob has.

Bob walks into the library, the bullies start calling him names again, but Bob completely ignores them. He sits down and starts reading the astronomy book that Grace gave him.
