Project B

This is a picture of the alps with a snowy golden peak. One road lies under the mountains peak, dwarfing passing cars and vans. the clear white snow dominates the picture. Bunches of green trees scattered in clumps across the landscape. At least twenty clouds float over the white route. No cars or vehicles are in the photo, just the road is man made.

This picture shows the oceans waves slowly flowing over the barrier of old concrete. A blue sky opens up above a small tip of an island in the distance. Tens of waterfalls flow over and into the storm barrier. Octagonal blocks built together block the oncoming waves day after day. This picture does not show where the blocks lead to the shore or if they lead to the shore.

This picture contains a giant lake nearly untouched by man, with a large house visible from a clearing. A golden mountain lies in the distance reflecting the sunlight onto the massive freshwater lake. Five rocks sit in shallow water infront of the camera lens. The lake acts like a blurry mirror refracting the light for a small looking section of the lake. The clear water, for now, it flows ever slowly, undisturbed by a single ripple or wave caused by a fish or boat.

Plugged In Trimester 2 (What A Pictures Worth)

A man jumping in the air on a hot afternoon. A clear blue sky lies behind grass, two fences and a large clearing. Bored but happy the man in the red jumps. This picture does not contain the full area, it only contains the sight of only 100-150 meters. The man in red is wearing shorts and beige shoes. The only time I have felt something like the man in red in this picture is at the end of a long week at school.

The challenger stares at his enemy, the bull stares blankly at the tired man.
golden brown sand scales the field with a white and red barrier protecting the crowd.
 The bulls horns covered in red, with tips as black as coal. The crowd is not shown in the picture. The only thing that comes close to this picture is when my fraternal twin and I have a stare down.

Will he score or will he let go of the ball if he gets tackled? The referee is not in the picture but most of the players are. Player 86 is holding the ball. Player 86 is in mid air yelling. Player 86 is right about to touch down and score. One team wear white shoes while the other is wearing black. When ever I play four square I can never expect anything because the challenge is to stay alive and make rules that aren't cheap but give you an advantage over everyone else. Unfortunately I play with cheaters and have a hard time playing with them.

Reflection On Prezi

Prezi, a very useful tool. It's easy to use because there are instructions for newcomers and tips for everyone else. You could make a presentation on anything, your'e also able to download clips and pictures on to the Prezi. It's easy to learn how to use but if you still can't understand there are even presentations about making presentations.

The first time I used Prezi was for the Classroom Of The Future assignment where we had to start our first project, I was still getting used to this new presentation system while my teammates started to toy with the program we found out that there are many choices for the background, you can see what the presentation looks like when viewed and that you can draw and make arrows if you want to.

If you want more out of Prezi, then you have to pay, but go and try it out, see what you can do, there's nearly limitless space. If your Prezi takes to much space you can minimize your images but it will have a close up when you present.

Prezi Abilities (briefly): draw, write, change background, change font, paint, upload pictures, upload videos, comments, able to choose private or unprivate.

I would recommend Prezi to anyone who wants a good presentation program where the performance is fantastic can look good.

The Classroom of tomorrow


This project used a website called prezi in which we completed this presentation about what my group thought future classrooms will look like.
