A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

4/5/2017

As the students filtered into class this morning, one student looked at the class schedule and said "I think today is going to be a good day." He was right, today was a good day! The class started a very exciting art lesson on digital photography. Mr. Hong showed the class a myriad of a iconic and powerful photos. This photo, arguably the most iconic photo of all time, is called "Afghan Girl." This photo was taken in 1984 at a refugee camp between Afghanistan an Pakistan. When this photo got picked to go on the front of National Geographic the response was instantaneous The number of people volunteering in refugees camp double almost over night and the "Afghans Children Fund" was started. Somehow one simple picture of a twelve year old girl had inspired change in the world.

I loved writers workshop cause I could write about anything I wanted to.

I did not like that we could not erase cause I made mistakes on spelling and stuff like that.

I learned that if you write about something you actually could be HEARD if you want somebody to know how you feel than you could write about it.

I will be writing lots of books that waste peons time 😜😜😜

I enjoyed writing in writers workshop. I didn't liked how long we had to write. I only like to write for 15 minutes. I learned what bed to bed writing is. I will still continue writing sometimes, because I like to write.

Writing workshop is really fun and it lets me have as much creativity as I want.

What I do not like about writing workshop is that we can't erase because I have made to many mistakes.

What I leaned from writing workshop is that you can Express yourself by writing and it keeps you Active and people can give you feedback like how Mr.Redacin gave me feedback I hope I spelled your name right.

I like it because I can write whatever I wanted and I wasent forced to share my writing. I diden't like it because we had to write for 30 minutes. I learned that writing can be fun. I most likely not but I might draw things

🌟🍼👶🏻Writers workshop👶🏻🍼🌟

1.} I like writers workshop because it gives us a chance if something is bothering us we can write it out.

2.} A thing that I didn't like about writers workshop is how we sometimes do silent reading before writers workshop and we get interrupted to stop reading so we can do that I just want to keep reading!!!! :-;.

3.} I learned that writing can be fun but not all the times.

4.} I think when it's summer time I am gonna go over all the math stuff and other kind of stuff that we learned about so I don't know if I will be able to write on my spare time it depends.

1. ) I like Writer's Workshop because you can write anything you want to. It's like you creating your own world in a blank canvas.
2. ) I don't like how we don't have to erase some of our mistakes.
3. ) I learned how to make a descriptive piece of writing just like what Mr. Redican said.
4. ) Yes. In the future I might make a story about my life or about my OCs (Original Characters that I made).

2.) I like everything in writers workshop.
3.) I learned how to make a proper story.
4.) It depends I I really feel like it or no. Mostly though, is yes, I will. Because I want to finish it up, and it's really fun even though it doesn't sound like it.

1.) What I liked about writers workshop was that you could write about anything you wanted to make it more comfortable for you to right.

2.) The thing I didn't like about writers workshop is the fact that you had to think what will happen next.

3.)I learned how to improve my writing from peer/teacher's feedback.
