Weekly Reflection

This week in the Integrated Learning Academy, I had four projects that needed to be completed.  FOUR!  Now thats a lot of projects that needed to be completed in the alotted timethat we were given.  Plus on top of that I had Four tests on friday.  Sometimes I just can't handle it and my brain just overloads and I lose track of what projects are due on day and what projects are due on another day.  But enough of me complaining.  Lastly, it was fun to be in the art room almost all day

This week in the Integrated Learning Academy, we got to go to the Apple store at Mayfair Mall.  But I had to get up at five thirty today to go to school earlier, to get the signatures of the teachers for the classes that I am missing for the field trip.  I also got Paired up with Jace Mcafree to find out if one to one computing helps in learning in school, and what device would be the most compatible with learning in day to day school settings.  Hence the reason that we are going on the field trip.  After the trip, I was pretty impressed with the IPad 2, because from what the Apple employees said, it is compatible with carrying and transferring files such as powerpoint and Microsoft Excel.

Weekly Reflection

     This week I finally learned how to fully use the blogger website thanks to Mr. Richle and Mrs. Miller.  I also got to experiment and test Alex and I's shoe experiment.  First we threw the shoes off of the roof, then we ran them over with the car.  After, we soaked the shoes in water and then we ran them over again.  Finally we got to tear at them with our hands, and by the time we were done with them the shoes were almost unreconizable.

Personal Blog

Personal Blog:
                   This week I continued to work on my art project.  My project is to draw a picture and grid it off, then draw each section, and eventually you would get a picture.  The picture that I have chosen is a picture of a pug with a Yoda costume on.  I have already grided out my entire picture, and now I am starting to Color on the picture with oil pastel crayon.  It will be hard to color in once I get into the details because the pug's face is very wrinkly, and not to mention, I have to add all of the wrinkles and shades on his Yoda costume.
