I think that it is hard to think about  what teacher goes through to try to help the students with their education. I think he is trying to say that he is ready to challenge the kids no matter how frustrated or mad they get. He wants to push them to overcome the greater adversities to come as they grow and have the strength to push through every problem that might occur later in their life.  The main point is to put more pressure one students to succeed in school and have that will to push through.

My groups stop motion project is a coke bottle rolling down the hallways then spinning down the end of the hallway and finally rolling into a trash can. We basically went down the 400 hallway and started about halfway through it and reach to the 600 hallway from there making it into the trash can.

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).
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/mindblowing, how would you rate your project? Explain why.
In hindsight, what would you do differently the second time around? Better lighting? Time management? Explain yourself.
Explain what makes your stop motion animation unique. How do you believe you thought "outside of the box" on this project?
What grade do you feel you deserve on this project? Explain your reasoning. 

1. It was about a baseball traveling through different obstacles around the kitchen table. I thought it would be creative to try something different from what I originally planned to do. I didn't know if it would be easy at first, but once I got the hang of the process, it was pretty simple. I basically did most of the setups while taking the pictures and I made it work the way I wanted it to be.  
2. I would give my project a 8 because my obstacles were creative and that I made it look like a actual obstacle course. 
3. I would of put more obstacles in, spread out my obstacles a little more, and Use a more wide open area. 
4. I would say my obstacles where creative and probably putting a smile face at the end made it more unique. 
5. I think my project deserves like a 80%-85% because I didn't think I put a lot effort into it with not spreading my project out. I do think I made the obstacles more different from one another and that I made it seem like the baseball was enjoying the obstacle.

3 day weekend... how was it? Give me a good story or something funny that happened this weekend. Go. 

I would say I had a pretty good weekend and it wasn't as bad I thought it would be. I had rugby game which wasn't as bad we were playing the Rockhurst Jr. Blues which are the number 4 rank team in the nation. I thought we were going to get destroyed, but surprisingly we hanged there for a while until they broke away. I also got to hang with some my friends and managed to make some money working for my dad. So in the end it was a pretty solid weekend.

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 decided to change it up by putting a baseball on my kitchen table and putting it through a bunch of obstacles. I start at the end of the table, put a bunch of obstacles, and then make its way to the back to the end of the table. Then at the end it will smile real big knowing that it made it past all those obstacles. I do not need any help on this, but if I did I would have my brother help me.

Tell me all about your weekend and please share photos!

This weekend was good I worked and made some good money this weekend. I also had a rugby game that went really well, but sadly we lost. I had good game I scored and made some good break a ways through the last half of the game. It was a excellent game for my team to build on as the season goes on.
