They survived the apocalypse and the wrath of the Greek Gods. They have fought for their lives against all odds, now they must face each other in the battle of a life time….
Today we brainstormed ideas for our Video project. We decided to make a Book Talk Video comparing Percy Jackson and Post-Apocalyptic Dog Books. Tune in two weeks from now to watch Percy Jackson face off against talking, apocalypse surviving dogs.
Today we created a poem about Tom Petty, Bananas, Apples, and Chapels. We recorded our poem and added pictures in Final Cut Pro X to create a digital poem story.
We hope you enjoy!
We also talked about our next project:
Coming Soon to a Blog Near You: An Interview with Tom’s “Wife”
We talked about the Australian story we’re writing!
We talked about Gangs of New York!
We talked about Minecraft and Mesa!
We found some pictures to use!

Today, we created the spookiest, scariest video on all of earth. We want to make sure everyone is ready for Halloween and to be SPOOKED. We can’t wait to upload it to youtube and share it with everyone next week!
Nightmare warning: prepare to be spooked!!!
-Megan and Gaby
This is what we did today!
First we read some poem some poems by Shel Silverstein, our favorite was Ticklish’ Tom!
We also made a audio story! It started as a plan for our video project, but we decided to make a sound story instead. We wrote out a script, recorded it, and added in some sound effects.
We planed what to do next week as a testing cooke dough and other foods as well.
We also watched the sneezing panda video on youtube
Here’s the audio story!
A commercial for a new product that changes your name!
Beware, headphone users. AND SQUARES.
Today was a prime example of a quote from 30 rock. “There is no such thing as a bad idea, only good ideas that go horribly, horribly wrong”. We had an idea, and it went wrong. So now our podcast is slightly more simplistic, but the script is still impeccable. ~SIMONE
Yes, I love your application of that quote, Simone! Yes, today we were able to get our script recorded. After attempting to read it through with two speakers alternating by the word, we ultimately settled on alternating paragraphs. Technically, the word-by-word alteration just didn’t work out–the sound was always off balance. However, we still managed to keep in one part where we speak together–stay tuned for next week, when we add effects and music and post our project! ~KATIE
Tori!
I missed you today but I hope that your swim team went well today. I can’t wait to hear all about it when I see you again next week!
See you!
Katie
p.s. I’ll be trying out that orange/teal combination that we talked about last time 🙂
This is a story of how I met Tom Petty told through a PowerPoint. Complete with pictures of Tom. 🙂
Today, we used the script that we wrote last week to record the podcast about SLO testing in school. Megan started by recording the podcast in Audacity and then played around with editing and music to make our finished project. It took some time to find the right song to go with the PSA because there weren’t that many options on the computer that fit well with the podcast. We’re very happy with the final product!
