Media Studies/ICT Video

Our group used "I can animate" to create a stop motion movie about objects in the classroom cleaning up themselves. There were some group members in charge of positioning the camera and some group members were in charge of carefully arranging the objects. I think (although it would have been difficult) that our group could have used different laptops to shoot from different angles.

Group Members:
Me (Sarah)
Finn
Selene
Kevin

Space Vocab

Please Mrs Butler by Allan Ahlberg



Poetry comes in all different kinds and is written as different genres. Yet, when people think of poetry, they often think of poetry that has dark and depressing elements. The poem that I posted here is the opposite of a stereotypical poem.

If I had to listen to one piece of classical music, it would be this one.
