Month 7-Musical Theory

Music has always been a huge part of my life.  I associate so much with what song I heard...my husband would tell me that I do that to much.  However, I know that the soundtrack to my life is a great one filled with many different genres.
Musical Theory made me leave my comfort zone.  I have no problem singing in the background while I clean or even when I was a kid in my church choir.  But never, did I ever sing in front of people by myself.  Completely unheard of!  This class had be creating my own music, writing my own lyrics, and rapping (yes, I said rapping) those lyrics into a microphone.  My class helped to produce our first ever music video and they had a blast coming up with the moves to go with the song.


Month 6-DEA

This month by far has been my favorite.  I loved getting an introduction to Flash and I crave more.  This will definitely be an application that I come back to!  Below is a link to my project.  I took a couple of vocabulary words from my district's reading series and used them in an educational tool that I would like to finish.
