Wow! What an amazing group of ladies! The many directions and roads we traveled tonight! This presentation just goes to show what a wonderful way to present a research project… All were so engaging and enlightening! Jennfer M. - Loved the box and the idea that it could have come from someone’s attic,..hidden away. Great! Your artifacts looked so real. I think that really gave it an authentic feeling. Loved your shape poem, too! Very well done..and original. Heather - I loved how you presented your multigenre with the sea turtle cover! Very original… I learned so much in such a short time. Well done! Holly- This story on Ada Byron was a great angle, and I loved how you challenged yourself choosing something that wasn’t an interest or a passion. I could tell, though, that you came to own and enjoy what you did with this. Pulling it together with the computer generated music was perfect. To think of how great her mind was! Great! Toni - like I said…you are a dancer! You should be proud of yourself that you challenged yourself in that way and you definitely rose to the occasion. You did a beautiful job and the poem for two voices was very well done. Amy…fellow NASCAR fan…great job and wonderful display. The trophy was great… and the book you created for your classroom. You have made a great connection for your boys… It was very appealing and well done! Nicole - Great job and very informative on Edgar Allan Poe… Lots of information I had no idea in regards to his history. I really liked how you put it all together for your presentation. Well done! Sonia - love your butterflies! You have created more than a model for your students, it will be an inspiration. It is so beautiful how you put all your displays together and kudos on the ABC book! Well done! Christy - A whole lot of shaking going on! That was great. Again, you really said you didn’t have a real connection to Elvis, but you wouldn’t have known it if you wouldn’t have told us! I learned a lot about the “King” that I didn’t know. The concert picture and ticket was a great touch! You really covered his life well. Your side-kick was the perfect touch! Well done!
I am so impressed with the variety and the many forms of genres all of you chose do to for your presentations. You can tell everyone put their heart and soul into this project and the results were fantastic. I have never enjoyed a class presentation like I have this one. It has been a wonderful learning experience and I can see “all the places we will go” with multigenre in our own classrooms. How exciting for all of us! Thank you, Dr. Frye, for sending us down this road!! Kari
