Re-presentationSS15

Assignment:
 * 1) Create a wiki page called Re-presentatioCodename. 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. We listening to Mrs. Carrier talking and all of a sudden I hear sounds of confusion and laughter in the class. A 4th grader is running in our class. He came in silently through the enter door, straight, turned right into the row I was in, ran past me, took another right, and ran out of the open exit door. The kid was Hispanic looking and had black hair. He was wearing an elementary school uniform. He had a straight face the whole time running. He looked in a hurry and wouldn't even give me a high five when I put my hand out. I glanced at him when he was out of the room. He ran right to his teacher, Mrs. McInerny and she put an arm around him. They walked back to class after that.

B. Using your notes, try to organize the "story" of what happened into a sequence in which the most important information is given first.

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 (include who, what, where, when, why) 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.) 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?

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