Re-Presentation+BB

__#|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 A. Take five minutes to write down quickly in note form everything that you can remember about the event. I remember Mr. Della Porta bursting through the door and the door slamming open. He had a jacket slung up his arm, it was halfway up. He was also wearing a pink shirt and khaki pants. I heard __#|more__ thuds.. I remember him looking around frantically as if there was a spider he was chasing down a poisonous spider or a rat.Then he shouted "Where is he? Where did he go?" And then I glanced across the room and say a boy in a middle school uniform glancing back at him as he was about to go out the door. He then darted off after him. He moved so fast that as soon as I blinked he going through the threshold of the door.

B. Using your notes, try to organize the"story" of what happened into a sequence in which the most important __#|information__ is given first. As students were laughing and working with friends, they got nearly scared to death by the following events: > || || || > || || || > || || ||
 * 1) Vice Principal bursts though __#|computer__ lab classroom door shouting "Where is he? Where did he go?"
 * 1) Vice Principal glances around classroom frantically, he had a jacket halfway up his arms
 * 2) Student sees another middle school student at the door, looking back at the Vice Principal
 * 3) Student blinked, and the Vice Principal was going through the threshold of the door in hot pursuit
 * 4) Students all gape at the door, wondering what happened, they were then told to report what they had heard and seen

C. If you were able to have a still camera to record the event, what one picture would you most like to have taken? I would take a picture of the posture, and the look on the Vice Prinicpal's face as he was looking for the student, in the background you will be able to see the student glancing back as he as about to run out the door.

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 t0 draw the sketch. Go to __#|File__ on the wiki page and upload the __#|file__ to your page.)


 * Crazed Vice Principal Scares __#|Computer Class__ Half to Death**

At Incarnation Catholic School, a Vice Principal bursts through the door of __#|a computer__ class the students were deep inside their work. He had a jacket in his hands, a pink shirt on, and khaki pants. Slamming the door open on the way in, and jumping with his legs apart in the middle of the room, the VP yelled "Where is he? Where did he go?". The students at first thought he was talking about a rat, or maybe a spider. But as they frantically darted their eyes across the room, trying to figure out what was going on, they saw a boy at the back door in a middle school uniform. The boy looked behind him frantically, and then ran out of the door. Our eyewitness blinked, and the VP was already crossing through the threshold in hot pursuit. The students were then told to report what had happened on their wiki accounts.

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?

Bryron Dannette Olivia Sam Jose Nicholas Alejandro (not enough people finished their stories)

Not everyone agreed on what was the most important event. We did not all have the same choice of picture. I think that everyone heard or saw what happened in a different way. Some say that they heard Preston come in, I saw I heard Mr. DellaPorta burst through the room first. Also, as they were looking around the room, some people didn't see some scenes of what had happened. So that explains why the pictures were different.

F. Do you think some versions are more accurate than others? Give your reasons.

Yes, I think some versions are more accurate than others. I think this is because some people's hears are keener than others. So they may have heard Preston sneak into the room while others hadn't. Also some people probably panicked, and instead of taking in their surrounding, hipped their heads back and forth trying to figure out what was happening. Also, some people may have been so panicked, that they ignored what Mr. Della Porta and Preston were saying all together.
