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.


 * Mr Dellaporta is wearing a jacket awkwardly while coming in through the door
 * He pushed Mrs. Carrier
 * She was awkwardly not offended by it
 * Mr. Dellaporta asked "Where is he? Have you seen him?"
 * Weird kid talked like Yoda by saying "Catch me, you will not"
 * Mr Dellaporta was running in the classroom, against rules
 * I was scared for a moment because I was just recently staring at the flag and I thought something was wrong
 * The outside weather was very dark and gloomy with seems suspicious and scary storyish.

 * We only looked at where Mr Dellaporta came though the door
 * Mrs. Ille was right behind me looking through cards
 * The boy sounded like Tyler Field, but I could not see him before he ran out
 * Tyler Field **SHOULD** be in class right now

Mr. Dellaporta ran in through the door rapidly. He was a jacket. He proceeded to run and PUSH Mrs. Carrier to the side. She was not worried about it though. The weird boy screamed, "Catch me, you will not" and ran out the door. Mr. Dellaporta chased after him through the last row in the classroom. The class did not talk until they Mr. Dellaporta sped out of the room and was no where in site.
 * 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?**

I would have taken a picture of when Mr. Dellaporta shoved Mrs. Carrier to the side to get past her while wearing the jacket or sweatshirt on his arms.


 * 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.)**

**"Vice Principal Hunts Down and Chases Student"**


It was a cool Monday morning at Incarnation Catholic School on Webb Road. The eighth grade class had just begun their ICT (Information Communication Technology) Class when the vice principal, Christopher Dellaporta, ran in shoving the teacher, Rhonda Carrier, to the side. A sixth grade student, Tyler Field, appeared from no where and was chased out of the classroom by Mr. Dellaporta. The class, flabbergasted, was lost for words. The act of the sixth grade student is unknown, but other facts say the student should have been in a class at the moment. My sources record that Mr. Dellaporta had a sweatshirt on his front arms. Eye witness reports state that the vice principal was tracking down the student to report him to the principal of Incarnation, Michael Zelenka. It could also be that the student was trying to escape from punishment of an act committed earlier in the day. However, the source also contradicts the theories stating "How could one student be committed to out running higher authority? The school day had barely begun!" Could the mischievous kid been trying to escape a demerit, or was he really an evil twin?


 * 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?**
 * ** Robert **

 * ** Jared **

Yes, everyone agreed that Mr. Dellaporta's speech context, rapid action, and choice of attire matched almost identically. (Of course, all writing styles are different) However, the choice of pictures are different in each article. Some pictures showed the runaway student, Tyler Field, hiding behind Mrs. Carrier's desk. Others chose to take a eviler approach on the vice principal. In most pictures of the chase scene, Mr. Dellaporta is pictured as a crazy, angry, maniac! Some pictures were more mild mannered than others. I chose myself to draw the chaser pushing aside Mrs. Carrier. Most people included the date, time, and class of the incident. Although many people ended the article by saying it was a joke. However, others take the incident as a real event as well leaving the ending to mystery. The clothes of the people also take different turns. Some people showed him wearing formal wear while others had him carrying a sweatshirt. Tyler's words were also changed amongst the crowd. Some say Tyler said, "Catch me if you can." Others say, "Catch me, you will not!" Some people also said they had not seen Tyler! Most people are relying on his voice to tell him apart from other victims.


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

Yes, I believe some versions are more accurate than others. Some people stated they had not seen Tyler (Like myself). However, others had seen him even when he ran into the classroom for the first time. Others recall the speech more clearly than others because they are auditory learners. Some people are visual learners and had Mr. Dellaporta's clothes pictured exactly. Some people might not be very good at drawing, so their picture might be less accurate then another persons. Some people just payed more attention to the situation or were closer up. Therefore, their interpretation can be more reliable than others farther off.
