=Script for Gold Team= The Magician of Wozz

Narrator: Today we will be reading a book called the Magician of Wozz. Once upon a time, there was a girl named Morothy, who lived in Kansas. She was in school being taught by her grandmother, when she spotted a tornado through the window.

Morothy: Grannie Gem! I see something in the distance.

Grannie Gem: That’s a twister! It looks like an F5 tornado to me, one that has winds ranging from 261 to 318 miles an hour and causes severe property and vegetation damage.

Morothy: That can’t damage the school because there are more than 1000 students here. Their parents entrusted the facility with their childrens’ safety. Perhaps, we can hide in the hall.

Hoho: Bark, Bark! The hallway holds so many hazards, it is impossible to list them all. Broken windows and unsafe architecture can cause nothing but danger for us.

Morothy: No! If only the hallway was safer.

(Morothy gets hit by debris and falls into sleep)

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Morothy: Where am I?

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Munchkin: Welcome to Wozz! The Wicked Tornado of the Midwest went on a storm spree south of here. It was like what happened in Moore, Oklahoma a few months ago.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">(Glinda appears)

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Glinda: I overheard your conversation about the tornado in Oklahoma that hit just this year in late May.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Munchkin: Yes, twenty children died from it. Many were injured too. That tornado was just an F4 one. What do you think an F5 one would have done.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Morothy shivers: I got transported here from Kansas in the middle of an F5 tornado!

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Glinda: You can help yourself and all of Wozz just by following that brick road to the Magician of Wozz. I heard he has a hallway of safety. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Narrator: Morothy traveled on her adventure and encountered three friends.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Scarecrow: Only 695 schools out of 1804 in Oklahoma have tornado shelters. I was in one of the lucky schools that contained one. It wasn’t very effective because of the unstable material, and left some students injured.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Tin Man: My school had a shelter, too, but it wasn’t big enough to fit everyone. Out of the eleven hundred kids in the school, my shelter could barely fit a thousand. Moreover, eleven hundred.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Lion: The shelter at my school had the strongest of all industrial materials, but quickly gave in to the tornado because of the weak architecture.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Narrator: The four of them continued on the road until they reached the Magician.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">City Keeper: Why must you be here.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Scarecrow: We are here to seek a safe house for schools in tornadoes.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">CityKeeper: You may pass, but hurry. There was a siren indicating another cold welcome of the tornado.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Magician: So you need an easy to install school shelter?

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">TinMan: Exactly.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Magician: I have the perfect solution for you. It's called the Safe Hall.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Scarecrow: Does it have a strong material?

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">TinMan: How about enough space for every student?

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Lion: And a strong shape. It needs a strong shape.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Magician: The Safe Hall is composed of ICF, also known as insulated concrete form, that keeps the shelter from ripping apart or from the ground and is fire resistant. The shelter will have exact measurements for student occupation space and a semicircular roof, to lead the tornado right over it.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Lion: Great that should keep us safe from the flying debris that kills most people and it will keep us from being sucked into the tornado.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Morothy: oh look its the tornado!

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Tornado: Hee Hee Hee. The Magician will finally give me his dear Emerald City.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Morothy: Oh no, you're not. With the Safe Hall, you won't be able to do that.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Tornado: No! The safe components will keep me from ever storming again!

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Glinda: Like I promised you I'm going to transport you back to your little Kansas. Clap your heels three times and say, "there is no place like home." Actually I'll just transport you back. Toodles!

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Pp

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Morothy: Grannie Gem! Grannie Gem! I have the perfect safe house for our school. It's called the Safe Hall.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">GrannieGem: Oh, Morothy. You're our savior!

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: HelveticaNeue,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,'Lucida Grande',sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">Narrator: That was the touching story of how Morothy saved her school.
