This week was a little stressful, but most of the time it was really fun. We had and still have tracking trash presentation/powerpoint, our historical fiction stories that are around Manjiro's story, the Making Movies Matter for our film class on Thursdays, Animal classification project for science, and The Day of the Horse. The three stressful things are The Day of the Horse, Animal classification project, and Tracking Trash powerpoint. The most fun is the Historical fiction, Making Movies Matter, and a little of the Tracking Trash presentation. Tracking Trash is a book that shows that we shall care more about our environment and that we through away any trash into the trash cans. It talks mostly about the ocean and how there is so much pollution such as plastic, toys, paper, oil, and etc. It is really sad, but it does teach you a big lesson. We are doing a presentation on a powerpoint and my chapter is four. The chapter talks about a useful tool to pick up all of the trash from the ocean and the tool is called a manta trawl, you would connect it behind the research vessel. Each chapter is similar, but each one has its own topic. The historical fiction is really fun because we can create our own story, but it has to have some facts in your story. My story is about Manjiro going to California with is friend Terry. He learns a lesson for being patient, friendship is important, and never give up. I am still getting to the final draft and I am going to add more to the story. The Making Movies Matter was really interesting. Mr. Mehta is our film teacher and he gave us notes these are the notes.

So we have to make a like short film that has to be educational and my team and I are doing a film about poverty. I hope we can get some kind of actors to help us with the short film. We only have two or three minutes to do this and that is including credits. In six weeks or so we have to finish our short film. If we do a great job and everyone likes it then we get to go to the film festival. I would love to go and just experience it. The day of the horse is painting was a little rushed, but I think I did well. We only had about a week to do it and that is a short, limited time. Last year we had three weeks to do it thats why I was so stressed out. The day of the horse is a competition of making the best horse drawing and getting a trophy for the school. Most of the time we win, but you never know if we will win or not.
