If we saw a piece of paper crumpled up on the floor, it would normally have no significance to us. However, if it is in a book it is there for a reason. In other words the writer has put it there on purpose.
1. A suicide note - a note that a pupil has written when feeling depressed. But, being a teenager, and therefore having major mood swings, has quickly decided against the idea. (Especially as they could think of no possible way to do it pain free) and have scrunched up the piece of paper and thrown it on the floor.
2 A christmas wish list - a wish list written by a young boy about how he would like a bat mobile for christmas please and thank you. The wish list is soon replaced as Robin becomes his favourite character instead.
3. Names and addresses - names and addresses of various people. Worrylingly, three people's names have been crossed out in red pen...
4. A poem - A poem written by a love sick teenager, 'ode to a beauty'. Written for the most popular girl in school. When the boy finally plucks up the courage to give it to her, she laughs, crushes it in her hands, and throws it on the floor.
5. A letter from school - A letter from school to parents informing them of when the upcoming parent's evening will be. On this day there were various bits of crumpled paper on the floor.
6. Not much - a piece of paper with nothing more than a title with a spelling mistake. The spelling mistake is edited out with tippex and then decided to be 'too messy' by a perfectionist.
