1. Story-telling Reflection
My Story is called…
The Planning Phase:
I chose to write a fantasy genre because when you are writing a fantasy story you have a
wider rang of things to put into your story and what I mean is that in a realistic stories you
don’t have a lot of characters or places or even imagination. I also would say that at the
beginning my group immediately wanted it to be a fantasy space story.
The most interesting thing about my main character? Well,actually I have three main
character’swho are Tiax, Tork and Slun. But if you want it exactly straight then I would
say that it is Tork because has a lot of script and at the end he tragically dies to save the
people on Earth from the invading alien force.
I enjoyed creating the setting because it was fun to talk with my group and just share our
ideas and work together while writing.
While making my plot diagram, I found it difficult to get all those different and all those
wonderful ideas into the plot.My best idea during planning was to create a new planet for
the story where the aliens lived. That’s where they were under the power of master
electro.While planning this story I learned more effective ways to make my story the best
that it could be.
The Drafting Phase:
It was enjoyable and difficult to write my story because sometimes I got stuck but there were
times when ideas didn’t stop coming into my head.During the Writing Workshops, I became
better at knowing where to put my capital letters and periods. If I wrote it again, I would
improve my story by adding more detail and the new things that I learned during the
writing workshop (about dialogue, sentences and story starts).
The Digital Phase:
I am proud of my movie because it has a lot of effort in it and also a lot of digital work.I
found it easy to create the storyboard because I already had my story perfectly planned on
my poster.My role was to be the scriptwriter and narrator.I worked especially hard at
getting a lot of dialogue and detail into my script.The thing I am most happy with is that I
got the story finished. While making the movie, I learned many new technology skills in
iMovie. If I made the movie again, I would try to speak more clearly when I am recording
because I was pretty much mumbling the whole way through.
Collaboration:

2. Sometimes, I enjoyed group work because I would never would be finished all that digital
work by now because I am pretty bad at the computer (but not in computer games).Other
times, I didn’t enjoy group work because it was just frustrating keeping Dennis on task.
While working in a group, I learned a lot of new things on the computer because as I said
so that I am pretty bad at computers.
During the unit, our group became better at working together and agreeing to the ideas of
other people.
What else?
During this story-telling unit I especially enjoyed writing my script and putting all the ideas
onto my group’s poster.After this unit, I might continue to write a few little stories.
