Wednesday, January 12th: One day until the project is due


Today, we worked very hard. Fea finished her annotated bibliography, made the new changes to her part of the essay, and finalized the outline for the editorial cartoon. Tonight Fea will write her reflection and color in the editorial cartoon. Amberly organized all of the drafts, edited a version of the essay, complied everybody's changes together but mostly kept the sanity of the group. Amberly also helped Asha by editing her two sources for the annotated bibliography, and helped her with the format. Asha had done the second paragraph wrong, as she had looked at the wrong part of the website. This was probably due to an error when she typed in the website URL. Asha made the changes to her part of the annotated bibliography, made changes to her part of the essay and helped Fea decide what to do with the editorial cartoon. In addition, Asha asked Mr. Blauer what he thought of our editorial cartoon. Mr. Blauer thought that we should show Khrushchev in a more concrete way and also use a different picture to depict Kennedy. He also thought that we should name the lawn Cuba, so as to make our picture clear. Amberly’s work for tonight is to write compile the annotated bibliography together and to have a family member look over the essay for her.  Asha’s work is to edit the essay very thoroughly and to write this blog post. We still have a lot of work to do, but since we have the full class tomorrow, I am sure we can get the project done with great success.
