For this protect, I created a podcast. The learning target for this assignment was: I can recognize how characters change/grow in a book, identify themes in a book, discuss how an important chapter from a book connects to a theme from the book.
I succeed in this podcast assignment and got a great grade. This project was about making a podcast by your self or with a parner. I did my podcast with a partner and we created a scripted that was 3 topics long with each of us contributing to each one. When we did the podcast we had to record it but we didn't have time because our scrip was very long and was spent a bunch of time on it. The podcast had to inculd one person that was asking questions and the other person to talk about then and answer the questions. I was the partner that asked the questions and my partner was assigned to tell me the answers. I feel like I can use how me and my partner panned this project in the future because we each contributed to the project equally and we each had thorough information. We also worked together nicely. We can also use this technique in the future because we can find ways to work together fluently.
What we did for the Charlie Hernandez summative assignment was me and my partner Lucy created a different ending for the ending of our book: Charlie Hernandez.
I demonstrated effort in this project because me and my partner put a lot of writing into this project.
How we prepared for our debate was first we filled out a doc that had use prepare for our debate and then we coped and pasted information as quotes and numbers so that we could have a stronger debate. We also made sure that our resource was credible by checking if it was a a reliable source.
We sadly did not win our debate even though we had strong information, credible sources, correct quotes, and numbers. I think it was parley because people wanted books not to be banned so they voted for that side.
I demonstrated refinement in this project because me and my group looked over or work a lot.
The most challenging part of the essay in my opinion was the part where we had to watch the video. I was really confused on what to do at first because I had came in late. I figured it out eventually and from there every thing was as smooth as butter. I think that another part that was challenging for me was when you had to copy and paste all of the words from the separate boxes and figure out witch was the introduction what was the first peace of evidence, etc. Also the last part that I though was hard was to work with music. I liked it but at the same time it detracted me. Some times I turned it off but for most of the time I was working I really needed to turn it off. One other thing that was very challenging was ending my essay because I am a very bad Constitution-est.
The part that I though I was a strong writer in was when I got into the evidence. In the beginning of the intro I really had to delete a lot of it because I kept jumping into the evidence and not working on the intro. I though that it was nice to state my argument and be able to know that when this essay was done maybe I could put it somewhere where people might change there opinion. Another time when I felt like a strong writer was when I was looking back at the work I had dine and noticed that I did a lot of hard work. It was also really nice to know that I had basically all the work done I just needed to copy, paste, and fill in the blanks with words.
I would tell a future 6th grade essay writer that If they don't work well with music DON'T listen to it, you will get work done faster and be able to maybe do an extension. I would also tell them to use the work that they have already done. It will be so much easier to do that then to look up a new sight and do more work to find the right information. Also tip for the next 6th graders is to when your doing the information with the websites and by who PLEASE remember to have good evidence. It will help your argument a lot.
My goal for humanities is being helpful and offering to help others do their work if needed.
I will do this by checking in with other fellow classmates and seeing if they are struggling.
