Kerpoof Picture

Advantage

My picture was really fun to make because there was a lot of choices to choose from Kerpoof.
The picture we chose to use in our podcast was this one, because it shows how our podcast word "Advantage" is being used in this picture.  The reason we chose that one was because it illustrates the main idea of our word in this picture. I feel that Kerpoof was a great site to use in our podcast because it was really easy to use by clicking on the stickers on the side and drag it into the photo.

Word Generation Podcast Week 7 Reflection

It was a great experience working with new classmates in creating the podcast for this week. I have gotten to know my classmates and see in what things they do well. I don't think that everyone contributed equally because it felt like that I had to do most of work. My teammates helped out too, by telling me where we can improve a part in the podcast. At first, I was disagreeing on making the music in the podcast lowered down because they said it was a bit too loud and I wanted it to stay where it was. My teammates asked me to review the podcast again. So I did, and I figured out that the music was a bit louder than our voices. Then, I lowered down the music and when I looked over the podcast again, I thought it was better than before because we can listen to our voices better. It could have been better if we have had assigned each person to do a job instead of me doing most of the work. It could have been better if we had assigned our own group because if we work with the people we want to work with, it may be easier in completing the podcast. Therefore, it was great time working with some new classmates.

Word Generation Week 5 and Week 6

Word Generation Week 5


Word Generation Week 6

In Francisco Middle School, our school started a new program called Word Generation. Word Generation is a program that help students improve their skills in reading, writing, and building new vocabulary words. Each week Ms.Hendrix's Media Arts class will be in charge of making the Word Generation videos to let the school learn the new vocabulary words of the week. When we first started the Word Generation program, you can see that our podcast weren't exactly the way it was suppose to be. During each week, we got better and better in creating the podcast by adding new entertainment to grab the audience's attention. Therefore, our class will make podcasts that help students learn new vocabulary words.
