Old Projects

 The projects from former students that were posted on Blackboard gave me a goal to work towards. I realized what was expected of us and after viewing them all came up with a few ideas of my own. At first I had planned on doing a scrap book. After watching the movies, however, I was moved towards making a short film myself. I was also intrigued by the collage idea and will keep working on my choice, definitely deciding on one soon. Whichever I decide to do I am looking forward to leaning a little more on my creative side for a change, I think it will be fun and a good learning experience.

Project 1 Topic


       I   was thinking about possible topics for my project and I came up with one in particular.  Up until 8th grade I had attended a Steiner school, which didn’t cater much to academics. After graduation I followed my older brother to Berkshire Country Day, a private school that I was not prepared for.  At first I was completely overwhelmed but with the one on one time with the teachers I slowly caught up to the rest of my classmates. I progressed in all my studies especially writing and literature . I think this was the one experience in my life that affected me most academically. At the top of my list for the actual projects is a scrap book but I haven’t completely settled on that yet.
