What do you think about it? What is the teacher trying to say? In your own words explain what "the main event" is.

I think everything that the teacher is saying is true. Students give up way to easily when they run into adversity, and that's setting us up for failure in the future. We need to stop taking the easy way out of things and challenge ourselves because it's not doing us any good. If we take the easy way out of things, we are not learning a real lesson. It's almost like were quitting because we don't want to work hard. The main event is learning how to deal with the problems in your life, because if you don't, you won't be able to enjoy life like you need to.

Reflect on your stop-motion animation project. How did it go? What worked? What didn't work? If you're not finished - why? If you are finished go in to detail about the project and what you learned. Give as much detail and information as possible.

My stop-motion animation project went really well. At first I didn't think my pictures would turn out well but once I put it in movie maker it turned out very well. Everything turned out well, some pictures came out blurry. I almost finished all I have to do is add credits and music.

What is your idea for your stop-motion animation? Explain yourself. Have you started taking photos? If not, when do you plan to take your photos? What is your action plan for today? What is your plan to GET SOMETHING DONE?

One of my idea's for stop-motion animation is to show my day at the mall with my friends. Its going to show all the stores that I walk into and the different shirts and stuff that I look at and try on. It's going to show me walking around the mall and sitting down and eating. I plan on taking my pictures on Saturday and Sunday.

Tell me about your 5 frame storyboard. What did you like about the project? What did you dislike? Was it hard to fit a story in to 5 images? Do you think you tell a clear story? What would you do differently if you could? Explain.

I liked that it was simple and that I didn't have to add any words to it.  I really didn't dislike anything about it. It was kind of hard but I feel that my story is very clear. If I could do something differently I would travel to more places for my story.
