Re-Presentation+PK


 * Assignment:**
 * 1) Create a wiki page called Re-presentation initials. Copy the information below and paste it on the page that you create.
 * 2) I will show the class a brief video of an event or an interview. Imagine you are a reporter who has just witnessed this event.

After viewing the event. complete the following

Mr. Della Porta came into the computer lab and almost knocked down Mrs. Carrier from my view. He ran around the computer lab and when he got to the first corner, I think he said "WHERE DID HE GO!?" Then there was some student at the exit door that said something I couldn't hear. Mr. Della Porta saw him and ran after him. After he left, people were laughing and confused on what just had happened.
 * A.** Take five minutes to write down quickly in note form everything that you can remember about the event.


 * B.** Using your notes, try to organize the"story" of what happened into a sequence in which the most important information is given first.
 * 1) Mr. Della Porta ran into computer lab yelling "WHERE DID HE GO?"
 * 2) Stopped at the corner
 * 3) Boy said something from the exit door.
 * 4) Mr. Della Porta saw him.
 * 5) Mr. Della Porta ran to the exit door in a hurry.
 * 6) Students had confused faces, but were laughing.

When Mr. Della Porta stopped at the corner and yelled asking where the student went.
 * C.** If you were able to have a still camera to record the event, what one picture would you most like to have taken?


 * D.** Using the materials you have got, write a story for your local newspaper that tells what happened. You should include a sketch of your imaginary picture with a caption. (Use Tux Paint to draw the sketch. Go to File on the wiki page and upload the file to your page.)

A Non-Ordinary Day in Computer Class
Students at Incarnation Catholic School went to computer class as they always do on Monday mornings. We went to our seats and went right to our Wiki Spaces. About five minutes into class, our vice principal, Mr. Della Porta, ran inside the classroom and yelled, asking "WHERE DID HE GO?!" He was in normal vice-principal clothes. Mr. Della Porta was wearing a buttoned shirt, a tie, but there was something unusual about his clothes. He was wearing a sweatshirt half on, half off. No one knew what Mr. Della Porta was talking about. The next thing we know, there is another student at the exit door saying something I didn't quite hear. Everyone turned to the exit door to see who was talking and Mr. Della Porta took off running again. After he left, all the students had confused looks on their faces. We were all asking each other about what had just happened and laughing about it as well. Following the confusion and laughter, we figured out that what Mr. Della Porta just did was so that we could do the assignment "Re-presentation" in computer class.

 * E.** Compare your story with those produced by the rest of the class. (Read at least 10 stories on the wiki.) Has everyone agreed what is the most important part of the event? Do you all have the same choice of picture? If there are differences, how do you explain these?
 * I went to Grace's, Teresa's, Marie's, Alexis's, Austin's, Quan's, Gaddiel's, Anna's, Dylan's, and Rafael's pages.
 * Everyone that I listed above agreed that the most important part when Mr. Della Porta and Tyler ran through the door.
 * Everyone was creative with their pictures, however, some people added other students in their pictures. Other people just had Mr. Della Porta and/or Tyler.
 * Some of the students stories were more specific than others. Some had specifically when and where this happened. Other students, unlike me, saw who the student was at the exit door. The all had something to do with Mr. Della Porta coming into the classroom and yelling "WHERE DID HE GO?!" They also had the same concept on what happened in class that day.
 * F.** Do you think some versions are more accurate than others? Give your reasons.

Yes, I think some versions are more accurate than others. The reason for this is because some people saw who was at the exit door while others didn't. Another thing that could make other versions more accurate would be that people heard/saw everything that happened. Other students could probably had someone's head in the way or was too confused to even focus.
