How We Did It

My
name is Eric. I was in Ms. Parker's class in 4th grade.
Now I come to her house for tutoring. It is very fun and
easy.
The
class had to look in a Cherokee legend book and read a story.
We had to pick a story that we thought was going to be good.
We had to write the beginning, middle, and end. We had to tell the story into a tape recorder. We went kid to kid and each one said a sentence until the story was over. We listened to our tape. Ms. Parker typed the story on the computer and printed a copy for everybody. We got to read it. Then we added parts to make the story sound better. We all got a copy of the new version. Then we underlined the verbs. We read them out loud. We used a thesaurus to find more exciting words. I got to fix the words on the computer. Ms. Parker and I started a web page. It was fun. I got to copy and paste the words into Netscape Composer. The class got to make pictures. I picked the 3 best ones. We stuck the pictures in the scanner. I scanned them. The scanner makes all kinds of noise. I adjusted the the light and made frames. I decided where to put the pictures in the story. I watched Ms. Parker link Uncle Remus legends on to her page. I
am so eager to have my own web page. |
