Today was GREAT! The reason why it was so great was because we got a lot done on our presentation on “The Taxes”. We also got a well developed base on the films on “The Boston Massacre” and “The Boston Tea Party”. Tomorrow if Shane comes back we will be able to get so much done. Jaime and I will have our presentation on “The Taxes” done by Wednesday if not then Thursday at the latest. I really can’t name anything that didn’t go well today… But there is always room for improvement, so I think what we can do better tomorrow is be focused on what we are doing with no distractions.

Well… Today was a good day for us. Shane got his script done and checked by Mr. Clarken, and now he is just getting his posters ready. Also I found some great pictures for Jaime’s trifold, I hope he comes back soon. What didn’t go well today was that the xerox printer wasn’t working today and I didn’t get to print all the pictures I needed but I’m going to try again tomorrow. What we can try to do differently is pretty much the same as yesterday, is try to do everything at once, be a multi-tasker, you get more done that way

Today was an O.K. day. We didn’t get a lot done, because Shane had big buddy and Jaime was out today. But what went well was that I got some of Jaime’s trifold done, and I found some really kool pics that I know he is gonna like. What didn’t go so well was that the fact that I was mostly the only one in my group that pretty much was there for project work time. What I think we can do differently is try to be doing more than just one thing at on time, and not just sitting around all day. I know tomorrow will be better!

Today was a nice day. We almost got to finish our poster about the proclamation of 1763. The poster is going to have maps and important people. It is all for a flip video on the proclamation. Shane is going to tell you all about it. It was also challenging because Jaime had to go to game leaders and I got in trouble. So Shane had to do most of the work. So the day turned out good andbad but thats ok because we are all trying to improve. Tommorow we will get more info and more links.

Today was awesome with Mr. Ecard. But he’s still not as kool as Mr. Clarken ( no one is ). What went well today was that Jaime and Shane memorized their scripts and they are ready to film. Also we started a GOanimate and a ZooBurst, I know they are gonna be awesome. What didn’t go so well was that the scripts took us a long time to memorize and get it perfect. I think when we film tomorrow it’s gonna be the best.

Today I finished the Persuasive letter draft, it was great please check it out. We also got all of our film scripts done, we put some very good thought into them. The last thing I think went well was that we finally got our pictures page up, I will have them linked A.S.A.P. What didn’t go so well today was that our scripts were a little to packed with info. And what was wrong with that was that we were so focused on our scripts that we didn’t research our subject as much. What is gonna happen to improve our work is that we are going to be more focused on what we are supposed to be doing and not doing things that aren’t necessary.

Wow. Today we got a lot done. We did 4 paragraphs of our draft and I will probably have it done by tonight or tomorrow. I finished a D Film at recess. and we were working on our scripts for 5 most important Events Leading to the Revolutionary War. What didn’t go so well was that we weren’t as focused as usual and that didn’t go to our advantage. Today I think was a very well organized working day for us. I think what we can do better is stay on topic with whatever we are working on for our project. Besides the focus and kind of getting of the tracks a little bit today was awesome.
