Genre Presentations

I first want to say that I really enjoyed everyone's presentations.  It was interesting to see how each group presented their genre's to the class.

The first group who presented "La Llorna" did an awesome job.  I really enjoyed their performance and their presentation regarding the origins of the story.  I especially loved the collage that the group put together. 

"The Diary of Ann Frank" was a great presentation as well.  I read the book when I was in middle school and it was nice to see her story presented in class. 

I have not read "Esperanza Rising," but it seemed to be a great book to read.  I really enjoyed doing the activities presented by this group.  The yarn doll was really cute and the fruit and vegetable activity was very informative. 

The opening to the "Amelia Earhart" presentation was great.  I really enjoyed the intro of the newspaper announcement into the interview.  I have always wanted to know more information about Amelia Earhart other than her mysterious disappearnce in the Bermuda Triangle.

The last group's activity with the fortune cookie was a neat idea.  The character in the video was cute.  I can't believe it took four (4) days to put it together. 

In all, everyone did a great job!
