My legs were beginning to cramp as I sat motionless in my hiding place. I tried to slow my breathing, but I could hear my heartbeat drumming in my ears. I wondered if it could be heard in the deafening silence. I felt my calf muscle tighten painfully and as a reaction, I shifted my weight. The sound echoed and it was my fatal mistake…<br />
<br />
<u><b>Number two:</b></u><br />
Sam felt the sun shining down on his shoulders while he sat happily by the stream. It was a perfect sunny day and luckily he was spending it with Sarah. Then, all at once Sarah pointed at the water. “Look Sam!” Sarah exclaimed. “It is a…”<br />

My job required for me to be ready all the time to play music for the next speaker. I had to find music for the speakers that they would want to have played for them. The music I chose also had to be appropriate and be something that would keep the audience’s attention. It meant that I had to keep good tunes going the entire time and be prepared for the next speaker. It meant that people relied on me for their music. Being a music man felt like I ran the whole show! I was a DJ and I had freedom.jakehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08498920533371786869noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-8869565104405800342011-03-14T13:28:00.001-05:002011-03-18T14:04:21.313-05:00Poetry Slam<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black;">My job for the </span><span style="color: black; font-size: large;">poetry slam</span><span style="color: black;"> was buying food and drinks, I thought I did a good job because everyone <span style="font-size: small;">liked the selections that I bought.

I think I pick the best job out of all if them. I was a Interviewer, who took the people out of the room and ask them questions. I thought this was the best job because you could really have fun with it. I thought the competitions in the intermissions was a great idea. Those competitions were probably the highlight of the Poetry Slam. I think the Poetry Slam was awesome and we should do it again.<br />

It twas the first and the only Poetry Slam of 2011.There were 4 M.C's (Carter Routledge, Wyatt Wilson, Kyle Braybrook, and Mackenzie Wooldridge). There was everything from dance compositions to cracker eating to singing. It was a slam!. The first person to say there poem was Colin Bender; who wrote a touching poem called the "Colin Bender Love Project", it cought the heart of veiwers.

For this job you have to be fair and you can't just give your friends the high marks and the people you don't like a bad mark. Also when you are an evaluator it takes for you to be calm and take a couple minutes to think about their mark. To be an evaluator it is fun and you have a lot of pressure on you to give the mark.Alexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04788088943667487510noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-81287834544685894872011-03-14T13:09:00.011-05:002011-03-14T13:22:54.361-05:00Poetry SlamMy job was typing out a description of the poetry slam and the order of events. What it took to do this job was being able to be organized and being able to get it done on time to get it done on time. What it meant was coming up with a good description to get people excited and having the correct order so people know whats going on and when. To me it felt good because your giving people a way of knowing what's going on rather than leaving them clueless.Kirstenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15701495139800714099noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-12207035541871392862011-03-14T13:09:00.008-05:002011-03-14T13:20:56.239-05:00Being an M.CIt meant a lot to be an M.C because in T.U.S.C I never got to be the Chairperson. It made me feel like I was in charge of both of the classes. It felt pretty good, but I had to get up there first and talk so I was pretty nervous at the start, but I was not nervous after that. I think it took courage to get up in front of both of the class rooms.Mrs. Rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05281324105318093960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-22284067243740381152011-03-14T13:08:00.007-05:002011-03-14T13:22:29.295-05:00Poetry SlamMy job was creating the outside of the Poetry Slam 2011 program.

My job was pretty easy to do. Marissa was kind enough to buy the food ahead of time, so I only had to help her set it out, and Room 109 was in charge of making the actual decorations. There were six different kinds of pop, and six different kinds of chips. Everyone was satisfied, as far as I could tell!<br /><br />I feel like decorator was one of the really easy poetry slam jobs. I kind of wish I had been assigned a harder job!

Everyone did there part really well and everything did what they were told to do. Next year a suggestion would be to have the music people get music going faster and louder. To be an evaluator it took some effort because you had to be watching and listening very well so that you god judge everyone equally and positive. It felt pretty good to be and evaluator because you got to mark everyone and see what everyone got as a mark and how well everyone did! We also get to make the finally choice on who got which award for each category. Also I like being an evaluator because normally you don't get a chance to be one and i took the chance and I liked it!Candace :)http://www.blogger.com/profile/14370849727102109574noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-51676438935270027492011-03-14T13:06:00.002-05:002011-03-14T13:18:33.995-05:00Poetry SlamI was an evaluator.<br /><br />To be an evaluator I think that you have to pretend that your friends aren't your friends, because you might want to give them a better mark than they should really get.<br /><br />I think that it meant that we had to pretend that you didn't know anyone in the room, and just give them the grade that they deserve.<br /><br />I liked being an evaluator because I got to give the poets the marks that they deserved.<br /><br />I think that the poetry slam went really well!<br /><br />Highlights of the slam:<br />I think the highlights of the slam were probably when the boys ate the crackers and then tried to whistle!!<br />That was hilarious!! <br />I also liked Mackenzie's poems!<br />I thought that she did really well.<br /><br />I enjoyed it a lot!<br /><br />The whole slam was really great!!!Meggyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11671215048099772345noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-2036092658983340932011-03-14T13:05:00.001-05:002011-03-14T13:07:51.668-05:00peotry slamafter having the poetry slam I had fun being the camera man because i found out how to work the camra.Montyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04325218768773903298noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-40390139707465874842011-02-27T09:59:00.001-06:002011-02-27T10:01:52.875-06:00Math QuestionsI didn't have my book at school on Friday so I didn't know what questions to do so I did number 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12, and 13.Mrs. Rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05281324105318093960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-3633362881389277912011-02-16T16:05:00.001-06:002011-02-16T16:07:02.137-06:00i couldn't find a readers theatre script , so we will just use our one we have because we are already working on it if that is alright.Candace :)http://www.blogger.com/profile/14370849727102109574noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851884682031854224.post-23385275272783685612011-01-30T09:26:00.002-06:002011-01-31T09:14:25.389-06:00Blog Challenge #2:<b>First<strike> person</strike></b><strike> </strike>10 people to find a <b>video</b> helping you find the <b>Volume of a Rectangular or Triangular right prism</b>, and post it to <b>their own blog</b>, win a reward. <br />
