I've had a request to do the multiplicity project again, so we while your finishing up your Earth day project...you know who you are.....We will venture outside to take photos on Monday and Tuesday this week. To review what the multiplicity project consists of. We will take around 12 photos of you from a set point. Then you will combine all of the pictures together to create one.'
Later in the week we will be spending some time on our blogger pages, I.E. adding some new links, adding some new gadgets to you site.

Earth Day Friday April 22, 2016
In tribute to Earth Day I would like each student to make a video representing Earth Day. Earth Day Celebration is in its 46 year!
The video that you make needs to contain photos, pictures, sketches, videos on the topic of Earth Day. A song(s) should accompany the images you present. Provide a title at the beginning and an ending title at the end of you video fading to black. Project is due Friday 4-22.
Two ways to take the video:
2 minutes or longs
15 seconds or less....
There are so many different ways you can create a video with this topic. Some sample topics. Again these are only suggestions.
1. Greed, Selfishness, Apathy......Only Man
2. Global Warming, Climate Change. Surely you have an opinion? Are there things that need to be done? Or ...is man making changes? Or does man need to make any changes?
3. Seven Billion Plus....Earth is the third planet from the Sun, the densest planet in the Solar System, the largest of the Solar System's four terrestrial planets, and the only astronomical object known to harbor life.

Notes:
Ways to get video clip from phone to computer

Other Comments:
What is the correct or desired way to hold a cell phone camera? LANDSCAPE or Horizontally
If you hold your camera in the vertical position you will end up with a black bar on each side of the image. If you hold your camera in the horizontal position you will fill the entire screen. ( I am recommending this )

Quarter 4 Week #1 April 4-8
Welcome Back!
Here we go....Let's finish the year out strong...
Monday April 4th. Please make a post to your blogger.
How was your vacation?
What did you do on vacation?
Did you go anywhere?
What was the favorite thing you did over break?
Include a photo to sum up your holiday!
Example:
I went to Savannah Georgia. It was my first time in the state of Georgia. I was very impressed with the city. Savannah, a coastal Georgia city, established in 1733, is separated from South Carolina by the Savannah River. It’s known for its manicured parks, horse-drawn carriages and ornate antebellum architecture. Its cobblestoned historic district is filled with squares and parks like Forsyth Park, shaded by magnolia blossoms and oak trees covered with Spanish moss. The historic district’s architectural landmarks include the Gothic-Revival Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist.
Take a look at the Spanish moss on the trees.
There was a few movies filmed in Savannah that you may have heard of...
Baywatch with the Rock.
Forrest Gump
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
