Week 6

Today Mr. Lee gave us some work that we had to do. Our job is to fill out this group template that is basically an outline or a plan for our 20% project. We have to fill out a timeline that shows what we will be doing the days we have to work on the project during class. I think that it will actually help me out a lot to have a plan of what I'm going to do. As I was beginning to fill out the template, Mr. Lee came over to speak to me. He asked me what I was going to writ about and so I told him about my biggest idea and he actually liked it. He said that I had a good idea now all I have to do is begin to write it out. Today is Friday so I have the entire weekend to work on it.

Week 9

This week we had to work on one slide for the presentation that we will be presenting at the end of the 20% project. I began working on my first slide but I ha a hard time trying to pick out a background that described what my 20% project was about. I ended up choosing a background but Mr.Lee gave me some feedback about it so I changed it. I ended up choosing one that looked a lot better than what I had originally came up with.

Week 5

I have begun to brainstorm on all the topics that I could write my children's book about. I still want to get some sort of feel on what children want to read about. Basically that is my only problem because I have a couple of ideas. One idea that I'm sort of playing with is writing a story about a little girl that dreams about becoming a figure skater or a veterinarian and at the end, the story fast forwards to a time in the future where she finally did accomplish her dreams. I really do like the concept but I have no idea if that is something that children would want to read.I think that that is what I will write my book about. I want to ask Alex and Valerie what they will write about and if they have even begun to write anything. I think that we should have at least some sort of rough draft by the end of the month. If we don't then I think we will have to work extra harder. Our project so far is coming along okay.
