Hi Jack.
I am so impressed with how well you have been working throughout the term on your writing. Your narrative story has a clear beginning, middle and end and is full of action along the way! It is great to see you incorporate your enjoyment of computers into your story. I particularly like the way you have used a lot of computer jargon within your story. Your effort using Garageband is fantastic - you have recorded your voice clearly, and used a variety of vocal changes and sound effects to add more depth to your story. Well done Jack!
Katie.

Story-telling talent development
Today at Talent Development we started our real GarageBand/KidPix projects. I did mine on GarageBand. I had to record my voice for the whole thing which is 3 minutes and 5 seconds long. It was very hard to make because I did sound effects as well. It was very fun and I still have to finish it off and show Katie.

P4C
Today as one of my workshops I did P4C. At P4C our question was 'are impossible things possible?' We started by seeing each others answers with no talk. Darryn then asked if genies were real. I said yes because there could be another world that we don't know about. Another kid then started a HUGE argument about it but in the end Darryn won and we carried on. After asking some yes/no questions we learnt about contradictions. We then settled with the answer that everything is possible except contradictions. In the end this was a good P4C session

Story-telling talent development
Today at Talent Development I finished up writing my story(again)and then we learnt about GarageBand. GarageBand is a computer program that lets you record your voice and then you can modify your voice in any way you want. You can also add pictures and if you do they will play as you listen so it is a bit like a movie. I have had fun playing around with GarageBand and I am ready to make my soundtrack for my animation.Download for Mac computer. Sorry, no download for Windows.
