I love the laptops! I just wish that there would be enough for everyone so we wouldn't have to crowd around them. But I love how you can take pictures and movies and fiddle with music! A suggestion would maybe be not so much of a group project with the laptops because there is always someone who hogs it and its not really easy to crowd around.
I have enjoyed the labtops so much that i think we should just keep them for the rest of the school year. I think we should just make a webpage about ourselves and put some pictures of us and stuff like that. I have discovered that comic life is a very cool program and I also enjoyed garage band and making my own little saying on that. A suggestion that I would make to my peers would be don't be afraid to try stuff and don't be scared that people will laugh at you if you make something.

something interesting i found was that you could post movies on i-tunes
Hey there Ms. Weir, how are you, today? I think you are the bee's knees and I love English class. I hope you are doing well and I just wanted to tell you that your blog rocks like a ruler. Anyhow, you have a great remainder of your week and have a great weekend and other such pleasant wishes and conversation enders!!! :)
ms. weir,
i am enjoying the computers, my favorite part is i photo because you can take many different types of photos and even videos. i also really like the features on garage band and comic life. another project we could make on these computers would be things like web pages.
I like the laptops because it lets you do things you wouldn't normally be able to in class. I wish would keep all the laptops. I really wish we could use more music programs before the laptops go.

We have thoroughly enjoyed using the laptops in English class. They are a creative and fun way of learning how to produce a movie. Rebecca especially enjoyed creating the story board! When using the story board application, an efficient way of dragging pictures is by using the 'apple key' along with the right arrow key. We would enjoy using a music software to create our own pieces!

The laptops are awesome! i want one of my own. they are a lot of fun. i like taking the pictures with them and fooling around and making them look cool and stuff. A suggestion would be, to maybe take one day off of doing the videos, maybe at the end of the month and do something just random with your friends, like we did when the guy was teaching us how to use them.
I think the laptops are cool. I am having fun with them. Using the laptops is way better than mythology. My favorite program on it is photobooth. i like taking funny pictures with those effects.
The laptops are great!! I really enjoy all of the different applications that it comes with! What I would really enjoy doing would be to make more podcasts and use the different applications like Garageband, iMovie, Photo Booth and many more! I really wish that I would get a laptop and that we could keep them for the rest of the year. I also wish that there were more than 10 but 10 is better than none. I can't wait to see what projects are coming up next with the laptops!
