we found our lyrics with your help Miss Grandick. We fixed the lyrics up with vocabulary. I had to sing the song. ( it was very bad) we had frank dress up and we shot the video. I did enjoy making this video more because it was exciting. The rubric helped with remembering the points needed in the video. The easiest part of filming was filming its self because we have done it before. the difficult part was the lyrics because we needed something that would go along with the song. The best leader was loretta because she was THE BOSS.

The writing assignment helped. It didn't help more then the films, it helped less, because in the films you get to act as a character in the past. I don't have any questions. I would rather pick the genre of music and i hope i do not have to be the leader this time because i did most of it the last time.

I think the whole article is interesting because I find war interesting. I would rather do the 600 word blog. I think it would have taken longer to get food prepared.

The scientists because when i was younger i wanted to be one. I likes Lisa's because i like how it was sort of like a talk show. anything that was in my movie i remembered because we went over it like a thousand times.I am not sure about how it will be done but i believe it is a good idea.

We know what to do when we film we are still trying to figure out the editing. I believe it has enhanced the lecture because it is fun to learn about it while filming so, when in class we understand it more. Travis was the leader he showed up but it felt like the rest of us had to do everything. I would like to see Loretta be leader. I think it would be fun to sort of reenact a battle but no violence.

I liked how the test was set up and i am not sure about 126-128. My group has industry in NEW England. I would have done a documentary style and have a small slide show about New England.The plot would be mostly about trade and ships.

I would give my group a seven because it took a long time to get the filming done. I was absent that day but i feel they probably would helped. I haven't watched the videos. I don't remember anything .

I do find it difficult to think of an idea to express history because no one knows what exactly happened and I do tend to over think things. I work best with Loretta. I was the group leader and I think I did well.I think we should have had just thirty more minutes. I was a forced worker trying to pay off a debt and I wish we could have had more video time on our video.

The planning in my group is going good but not as good as I had hoped. I do enjoy working with my gorup because we get along. Bunker Hill is the name of our group and it is the first battle of the American Revolution in 1775. I understood how to use the camra.

My first impression of my history class was it looked like it would be a loud class.
I want to learn about all of the American Wars.
The largest obstacle will be working in groups. I would rather work by myself.
