Prezi and Info graphic
The first thing I did was I wrote a persuasive to my parents. Then I asked questions at home but I didn't use my questions that I wrote.

What do you think about it? What is the teacher trying to say? In your own words explain what "the main event" is.
I think that he is telling the truth. That he loses sleep because of his students at school. He is the teacher of the school and his students are honest with him but he isn't always honest with them. He is telling the truth. That his students are making him lose sleep. The main event is that that you take charge for your own fear and doubt in order to make something happen.

1.What was your stop motion animation about? Why did you choose your video to be about this? Was it because it was easy, because it would be fun, or it would be challenging? Explain your reasoning behind your project (and be honest).
My stop motion animation was about Squidward making his way through Bikini Bottom in Spongebob life. One of the reasons that I chose it was because it was easy. The other reason was because I needed something to do cause It was Friday morning and I hadn't decided what I was going to do yet, so I woke up at 5:30 that morning just to do it.
2.If you could rate your stop motion on a 1-10 scale. 1 being low effort and no very good and 10 being out of this world/mind blowing, how would you rate your project? Explain why.
I would probably rate mine a 6 or 7 out of ten because the not all of the pictures weren't taken perfectly still cause I was exhausted that morning. Considering that I took the photos at 5:30
3.In hindsight, what would you do differently the second time around? Better lighting? Time management? Explain yourself.
I would have better lighting and way better time management because when I took these photos it was at 5:30 in the morning and it was pretty darn dark outside. So I used the lights in my living room. I couldn't stand still when taking these photos either. I would have had my mom or dad take them but they were wanting to sleep.
4.Explain what makes your stop motion animation unique. How do you believe you thought "outside of the box" on this project?
I had a character from Spongebob going through Bikini Bottom exploring Life. Plus I decided to actually set up the entire board which took about 5-10 minutes.
5. What grade do you feel you deserve on this project? Explain your reasoning.
I think that I deserve at least a B+ or B-, because I used the effort that I had at 5:30 in the morning to get up and take these photos to get up that early.

3 day weekend... how was it? Give me a good story or something funny that happened this weekend. Go.
I didn't really do much this weekend except play on my XBOX and help my dad plant a new flower that him and my mom got over the weekend. My dad was spraying the weed killer around the yard while I was digging the hole for the plant. He said that it had to be at least two times around and two times deeper than the plant actually is. But I stumbled across a problem. I encountered a huge rock while digging the whole. My dad had some trouble getting rock out and I don't even know if he got the rock out.

Tell me ALL about what your idea is for your stop-motion animation. I need detail. Who is going to help you take photos? What props do you need? Where do you plan on shooting? EXPLAIN everything.
I am going to do something with an app called 1010. It is kinda like Tetris but its not. The objective is to place different shapes onto a board without running out of space on the board. For instance if you were to get the 3x3 square and you didn't have any where to put it, the game would end. So I am going to do something like that. I will be placing the shapes in the game on a black back round and as I complete a row, that row will disappear.

Tell me all about your weekend and please share photos!
Me, my mom and my two brothers were planning on going to Dodge City but we me and my brothers got the stomach flu. My mom took a wrong turn in Emporia and we ended up heading to Witchita. My mom turned us around and when we got back to Emporia one of my brothers threw up. So my mom called my dad and my grandma asking us what she should do, and they both told her to just go home if we weren't feeling good.
