First Newspaper - (Sept.8,2008) Reflection Entry

The newspaper today is alot different from the one in 1690. Some obivous differances are the writing and the heading, its alot fancier and todays newspaper it just plain boring. The goverment then was alot more harder to get along with. They are crictal because they have to be to keep peoples attention, if they wer'nt they would not be able to publish, so thats why they keep it going. I surpised to hear that the first newespaper was in Hailfax and i thought maybe it would be in Nova Soctia for some reason.

Creative Writing --Tuesday- Sept 16, 2008-(Entry 3)

The website i looked at is called http://www.uxbridge.com/kids/fr_kids.html, its basically about these 3 kids who publish there poems but its a pretty old site. The poems on there are good and have a lot of color. The poems and storys are effective because little kids wrote them and put a lot of work into it. I like this website because it has alot of color and it even has a biography about the kids. I would like to model it by putting lots of color in it and maybe the kids would give us there poems and if we have a winner then we could do like a biography on them and put them on the site.

Monday September 15, 2008 --Creating Video (entry #2)

The video i watch is very dull and boring and did not make a whole lot of since. the camera in this video was used well. But, the lighting could of been better, maybe a little more color and alot more lighting.the planning was alright to but i did not care to much for it.
The video is not that effective because its just a bunch of gps things in the sky making the innocent girl go around in circles. The elements that are strong in the video maybe the color which is the only thing and its not even that good. i actual did not care to much for this video it just caught my eye and i would not a video like this on the school newspaper is would be pretty boring.

Sept,10, 2008 - School Newspaper!

Our newspaper, is kinda boring now we should spice it up some. I think we should put more pictures of the students, sports. Also we should have some videos on the newspaper, maybe video some games after school and post them to see the winning goal or maybe for those who are into sports and missed a game that they can get caught up. My favotive school newspaper site, I looked at would have to be "Sliver Chips". Sliver Chips has pictures of students, activies that go on at the school it just caught my eye i guess. What i liked about Sliver Chips is that its has alot of videos and just nice how their website is set up.Our newspaper should have alot more eye catching stuff.
In the newspaper i would like to work on the tickle trunk.
