Curtis+Strange+Reflections+April+5th

** Curtis Strange Reflections (April 5th) ** ** 1. ** //** Checklist **//** -- What specific tasks from the project checklist did you and your buddy begin, work on, or accomplish? What step are you on the checklist? ** We are done with Storykit entirely. Now we're in the process of presentations. Keiira didn't present today but is presenting the next session (April 17th).

** 2. **//** Summarize **//** your session with your buddy. What went well? What challenges do you encounter? How did you overcome or deal with these challenges? ** ** Today we simply watched others present. Keiira and I talked about what we noticed in others' presentations such as eye contact or lack of, reading off the book, and loud speaking voices. I told her since she's going first, she's resetting the bar for that day. I told her she did well going over the book with me one on one: she made eye contact with me as she read the story to me. She could do this during the presentation too since I'll be in the front of the room. **

** 3. **//** Reflections **//** - what did you do well today? How were you supportive? What area do you need to improve in for your next session? ** ** Today I reminded Keiira she should try to look the book over before the next session and practice reading. However, she informed me they don't get class time to do this outside of buddies being there. So I'm going to come on the first shuttle next session and go over the book with her before she has to present (she goes first). **

** 4. **//** Plans **//** - what are your plans for the sessions this week? How will you prepare? What will you prepare? ** ** I need to remember to bring my camera, to take a picture of her written work, and to take screen shots of pages in her book itself. These preparations are for my VoiceThread project. **
