1. Story-telling Reflection
My Story is called THENINJA FIGHT.
The Planning Phase:
I chose to write a fantasy/adventure genre because fantasy has cool magic and adventures
can be in jungles. The most interesting thing about my main character isthat Kazukiis the
most powerful andhe savesBISS.I enjoyed creating the setting becauseit was cool to work
on the story and to do drawing and to write this.
While making my plot diagram, I found it difficult to make the plot diagram because I don’t
know what events to put in.My best idea during planning wasthat one ninja has to be more
powerful. While planning this story I learned the ninjas are very good.
The Drafting Phase:
It was enjoyable to write my story because we worked very hard on our story. I am proud
of my story because I workedvery hard.During the Writing Workshops, I became better at
writing sentences. If I wrote it again, I would improve my story by having no teacher help.
The Digital Phase:
I am proud of my movie because it was fun to do it and it was fun to work with the
group.I found it easy to create the storyboard because we had already written the story so it
was no problem.
My role was to be the soundtrack engineer and to find the most powerful sound in the
world. I worked especially hard atwriting the story.The thing I am most happy with is our
movie making in this UOI. While making the movie, I learned many new technology skills
in iMovie. If I made the movie again, I would try tomake the movie more cool and good.
Collaboration:
Sometimes, I enjoyed group work because we all worked very hard on our movie.Other
times, I didn’t enjoy group work because they all worked on the computer.While working in
a group, I learned how to make a good work with other people. During the unit, our group
became better atfinding soundsand editing the story.
What else?
During this story-telling unit I especially enjoyed the story writing.
After this unit, I might continue to write stories at home.
