Thanksgiven 2007

On Thanksgiven my family and I went to my sisters house. When we got there I saw my grandma ( it has been a long time since I have seen my grandma) and ran up and gave her a big hug. Then we all went inside and talked for awhile, watched football, and of course we ate. After the turkey was cooked my dad took the turkey heart and chased my sister with it. After all the fun and games we sat down and had some turkey talked some more watched some more football and then we said our good byes and left to go home.

John Cabot Claymation

Clay Reflection Essay

In this essay I will tell you about my clay project. I will tell you what was the hardest part of the project, what part of the project was the most fun, and what the most important thing I learned.

The part I think that was the most fun was when my partner and me where making our clay people. It was fun because we got to use clay instead of textbooks. I like it because we whould get some time to sit down and play with some clay and just relax. It was fun because after we made the clay people we saw I looked like they where moving and it was really cool to see that we made that. We also got make clay people with our friends instead of just sitting at our desks and do it by our self. Another reason it was fun is that when we where making our clay people is that we where not rushed so we had some time to have fun making the clay people.

The part of the project I think was the hardest was when we had to make the clay people move for the scenes. It was hard because when ever we whould move them they whould always fall over before we could take the picture so it got really irritating. Also when we tried to record for our scenes there whould be to much noise so we whould always have to restart recording. Some times the computer whould not work or the program we are using whould shutdown for no reason. Another reason it was hard for us was that some times when we where going to take pictures for the scene some one whould take our clay and then it whould take about 5 to 10 minutes just to find our clay we really made me mad. Another reason it was hard for us was that some times our camera whould not work so we could not take the pictures for our scenes so we got behind.

I think the most important thing I learned doing this project was that you need a good partner. If u don’t have a partner that you work well with you will not do well on your project. If you and your partner get in arguments a lot you and your partner will get really far behind and will start not to do your work. So you are better off trying not to get in arguments with your partner or you will not have fun doing a fun project. Once you and your partner get along the project is a blast.

Thank you for reading my reflection on my clay project hope you enjoyed it.
