Mr. Buxton,
Is this Persuasive ANIMOTO good? Is there anything I should change.
http://animoto.com/play/R2dKzfUbB0dMwsnl7ZGH6w
Also, can you tell me when the Historical Fiction Project is due. For Clarification, Our Persuasive ANIMOTO is due onTuesday, tomorrow, right? And when is our persuasive essay hard copy due, Thursday?
Could someone tell me all the Events that we HAVE to have in our SS Essay?
I don't have my notes with me.
You are stating that it needs to change, but you are not saying HOW...too many of your slides seem to be repetitive. What must people/society do to change?
French/Indian War
Proclamation Act
Stamp Act
Townshend Act
Boston Massacre
Boston Tea party
Intolerable Acts
First Continental Congress
you will proably need to mention the Sons and Daughters of Liberty as well.
Thanks!

good bye, everyone!
Oh well Maddy because at the end of the day while Mr.Buxton was helping me ( Read the 11th comment to finr out more) he said I could do a essy but maybe I miss understood.

Guys, you don't have to be asking these questions, it's all in the post!
oh yeah sorry
No need to say sorry.
how do you upload a doc. from box.net into your usb key
Go to: File options and then click download. If you don't get that tell me, okay?
After you click download you know how to do the rest. Just incase, let me recap:
Go to wherever it's saved and drag it into you USB key file on you computer.
Guys, click on everyone's profiles! They've changed! Automatically...
I know Maddy! I was looking at your profile to see if that photo in the comments was really you( it was) and I saw! :)
WAIT.... What do yuo mean we will work on them this week they are due this week!
Or am I wrong......
I have no clue what you mean, Han! I want to help, but I don't know what your talking about.
Do we need a hard copy of the essay or can we just save it onto Google Docs?
(I am turning into an OBOB! This isn't good! I have to stop blogging now!)
The persuasive writing is the writing we started today right?
I mean Maddy you know how we have all those projects are they due this or next week?
Because on the post it said we will work on them a lot this week, but a lot of the projects ARE due this week
Oh no am I !!!!!
Maddy HARD COPY means on paper!
s
opps I meant to say what is the mid year assesment?
Maddy it is suppose to be printed
and colour-coded
I am becoming a OBOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will not post any comments!
Guys! What do you think???
http://animoto.com/play/HnGwYli0K9B40u0uJ98Lyg
It has to be color coded! And Han! NO SOCIAL NETWORKING ON THIS BLOG! OBOB IS A SOCIAL THING!
I tried to put music on my animoto from home and it isn't working. Does anyone have a good song recommendation for a Help Cambodia topic?
Comment on my animoto okay? PLEASE
Something that is slow and nature-ish Caroline!
What is????? I know what it should be I just can't find it.
Do you need to do all the ss events for the loyalist animo to
You have to mention so yes Harrisen
What about my animoto?? I need some advice
What about me making my animoto and I tried to look at yours but my internet browser didn't work with it.
Nakul, don't question Mr. Buxton decision! Just appreciate it!!!!
OKAY ANISHA TOLD ME ONCE!!!!
Nakul -
think about this while I finish watching your video :
you make quite a bit of reference towards the muslims and hindus fighting, is your topic just that war or all religious wars? I know, you say that thing about how in the most recent wars 7 million/billion people have been killed, but mostly it is making reference to those religions in particular.
Hi guys here is my animoto pleasecomment!!!!!!!
http://animoto.com/play/AyPKMSRGHMs1tzii5TG5nQ
It's focusing on Hindus and Muslims fighting so I should change the title. Sorry, forgot! Thanks for reminding though!
Harrisen maybe you are telling too much and not showing enough
Caroline- Try X-mas pop under the Holiday section.
(Don't use Xmas rock because I'm using that)
I've fixed the title and parts of the opening!
Well I don't know if you should change the title because you do make that one reference about the 7 million people having been killed in the 4 most recent wars. That part persuades the viewer a bit more and has quite a big impact on it.
I also like the part where it says something like, 'it only takes one to change the world' that is quite inspiring.
You should elaborate on the Indo-Pak conference a little.
HARDCOPY
what's an OBOD
Nakul - the point is as we discussed today...who are you persuading? and what are you persuading them to do?
Thanks SO MUCH Maya, I was hopeless for a long time trying to find the right song. Since it has no words it is barely christmas music!
Thx,
Han thank you for the advice should i maybe change some words with pictures or just take the words out.
Can people comment on my animoto? URL:

Harrisen -
Good job! The music and theme work really well with the topic.
There is one slide that says 'poverty could change our future' and the people in the picture below the worlds are - in a way - jumping for joy. That doesn't really fit.
You should revise some of the grammar errors that make it a little confusing.
You repeat some slides like the seal of the President one and one of the explosion ones. I am not sure if you did that on purpose though.
It is very inspiring all in all though.
It is OBOB Mr. Buxton it is when you are posting too much comments and something like that......
OBOB Obsessive Blogging On Blog!
Anyways here's my animoto
http://animoto.com/play/dYT0G1hmDFzHS6KEBOKRAw
Harrisen, I think its beter to replace the words to pictures beacuse then you won't be reallt saying anything.
An OBOB has something to do with Obsessive Blogger but I'm not completely sure, Anisha made it up.
Mr. Buxton- OBOB is obsessive blogging on blog.
thank you maddy
is anyone going to comment?
http://animoto.com/play/3a4fGSYJL5WRb2icWf8bZQ
That one could have more description and a longer song Caroline!
MR. Buxton, For the final speech can you put it on the blog so Maria and Scott can see it when they move?
Caroline -
Well done! Some of your slides are very inspiring and make me really want to help.
You should maybe put in some picture that would explain a little more about why we should help them.
The happy Christmas music doesn't fit with the 'help Cambodia' theme, and it ends halfway through your animoto anyway.
Good job, though!
I thought the song would make the slides stay compared to how long the song is! How long do you think it could be?
I can't find the right song!!!!! I have been looking for so long!!!!!!!
caroline find a song which is 5min that is the maxium and I think that would be plenty
and what did you say about the speech!?:)
Mr.Buxton I'm arguing to governments!
Caroline look in the indie rock sectifor titled a song titled something like 'great day' or something.
my animoto is on my blog
Harrisen you need to slow down your animoto I can't read it all. And you say mine has too much words. Yours has even more!!!
George-
You have quite a few repeated slides. It is pretty ggood otherwise.
This is my animoto......
