Hi Max.
Well done on a productive writing session today.  You worked well independently, and completed more of your story from your set plan.  You were really focussed during the Garageband demonstration and asked thoughtful questions to help you process the new information.  Well done Max.
Katie.

Story writing

Today in story writing we used garage band to make voices and sound effects. For today we just used The Three Little Pigs. We just used some student shared images and Katie helped us to make music through the whole thing and make noises for the characters. Like for the wolf we found some booing noises and voice overs and for the pigs we made a mouse voice.

Story writing

In story writing we continued writing our narrative stories and we planned out what we were going to do or what we need to produce our stories into a movie. We planned our title. Alex and I have called our story "A War in Zorbak". We are going to make our two characters crash on an unknown planet that none of our planet's people know of. Our rocket-ship's engine gets stolen. I can't wait to finish writing.

Chess

Chess is a fun exciting game. It's hard at first to remember where all the pieces go, but when you get the hang of it, it's an awesome game. With chess you can enter a lot of competitions all over the place. Chess is a good strategy game because you need to use a lot of different strategies to outplay your opponent. It doesn't seem like it but it's just like any other game: Your pretty bad at the start but then you get a lot better. So keep trying and you will get better eventually.

Talent Development

Today we did some more talent development, we were planning our stories.We were looking at   problems, , people and why and when. Today we also picked partners, I choose Alex. Our story is al about 2 twins that get trapped in a black hole and end up in a planet that they don't know of named Zorbak. I can't wait till we act out the movie, it's going to be MINT!!
