Blogger
I think my writing improved using the blog because I thought anyone could view the blog and so I wanted it to be good when somebody looked at it.
Using the blog format wasn't hard as I did it more and more. In my opinion I think my writing improved while using the blog, because I got to practice a lot more. So I kept getting better and better. The best thing about posting my letters on my blog was that I could say what I really thought of the book, I could give my real opinion of it, and be my own person.
All in all I think using the blogs in L.A. class this year were very successful. we could use them for a number of different things, from writing about our books, to posting and sharing our work. I think it was a good way to broadcast who we were to the rest of the class and anyone who was reading. By looking through older posts I had made at the start of the year I get a flashback of all we have done.

Thinglink Book Project
Book Trailers using iMovie
I really enjoyed this project and. I couldn't stop my Fangirl scream and I had jitters of excitement. One of the most important thing I learned from is is probably that I understood the characters and the book very well. Another thing I learned from this project is that it's easy, simple, and fun!
I would do this project again because it was the most fun project I’ve ever done. What you need to say when you present our movies is “these were done by 5TH GRADERS”
Did I enjoy it? No I didn’t enjoy it , I loved it. It was funnest book report ever. I learned and thought about my book a lot than just a regular book report.
I think that other teachers should make book trailers with their students because of the benefits of achievement, further knowledge with technology and the students will enjoy it. It’s not one those book projects you dread, every day you want work on it and make it better until you have a final project you’re proud of.
