Reflection

         I think I did my part well in the project. This part was to find all the pictures and list out the sites on a google doc. I think I did well in this because I listed about 20~40 images for the presentation and later when we had to pick the pictures we had more variety too choose from. After we found out what images we were going to use we recorded it and it was not that hard but we ran into a problem there. The project was not enough so we had to do something to save this project. So I did, I put in music and credits and other extra stuff to make the presentation longer.

I would improve on my collaboration because the first few classes we weren't collaborating with each other and instead we were all doing the same thing at the same time which was writing the script. This was bad because when we wrote at the same time, sometimes when I was writing in one box one of my other partners might be writing in the same box with me. Than we would feel like deleting their work because we feel like we were there first and they came stealing our box and no work is done.  This went on for about one class but on the second one Mr. T told us to split into jobs which was a great idea. He said one of my group members to be the person who writes the script, my job was to find lots of images and put it on a google docs and my other partner to be the one who finds the images from the google doc that I'll fill out and put it next to the script. After we did that we went smoothly so we were able to finish the project on time.

I learned many things from my presentation. First of all I learned that Cleopatra was not such a great queen at all. She was actually, in my opinion, the worst Pharaoh in the history of Egypt. This is because she lay around in her castle all day and fell in love with lots of men and did not care about her people. This carelessness led to the Romans attacking Egypt and concurring it. Cleopatra suicides when that was happening but she did not suicide because of Egypt, she suicides because Cacser was killed. That is why I thought Cleopatra was not such a great Pharaoh.

Our structure of the story was first we talked about how she came to thrown. Than we talked about her life from the end. We picked this structure because we wanted the project to be in order. One mistake we made during this was that we forgot to put when she was born and who was his mother. We tried made it like and informational video of National Geographic but we could not do that but over all I am happy with the results we had.

  1. Akira, this is a very good, fantastic reflection for you pharaoh imovie, but the reflection is supposed to be about the city you made a powerpoint on and presented to the class. Like today Julia and Harry presented theirs. Over all, it was a great reflection!
