Story-telling Reflection

My Story is called Skeleton vs. Ninjas

The Planning Phase:I chose to write a thriller genre because it is scary and fun for a group of boys. The most interesting thing about my main character is that is that he’s a powerful ninja. I enjoyed creating the setting because it was fun and interesting. While making my plot diagram, I found it difficult to draw good pictures. My best idea during planning was the main character. While planning this story I learned how to do team work.

The Drafting Phase:It was difficult to write my story because I had to add detail but still finish in my first try. I am proud of my story because it is very Intresting and fun. During the Writing Workshops, I became better at spelling.If I wrote it again, I would improve my story by adding more details.

The Digital Phase:I am proud of my movie because it is very good. I found it easy to create the storyboard because it didn’t need so much detailMy role was to be the script writer.I worked especially hard at spelling. The thing I am most happy with is my spelling. While making the movie, I learned many new technology skills in iMovie. I became much better at keyboard skills. If I made the movie again, I would try to do better narration.

Collaboration: Sometimes, I enjoyed group work because it is more fun, easier and not lonely. Other times, I didn’t enjoy group work because it is noisy and hard to get a chance to add something. While working in a group, I learned how to collaborate. During the unit, our group became better at teamwork.

What else?During this story-telling unit I especially enjoyed character making.After this unit, I might continue to write.
