<strong>Kind of Work:</strong> Tech general

<strong>Main Report or Narrative:</strong> Mon 2/28: I spent the day fixing computers in the lab. Mostly, installing drivers.

Wed. 3/2 I went over the guideline with the kids. They will be acting  out either the entire book or key scenes in the book. The 7th graders finished the book and started on their summary. I had some troubles  with the 2nd graders as they were "running around" and got in trouble  by Ms. Jefferson. From now on I will be escorting the kids to and from  the computer lab. I talked to the kids about respect, work and fun, and  how this project is still school work but can be fun. We then played  around with the mic and the sound recorder adding effects in to make it  sound weird and funny. The 2nd graders don't have their books done and  my goal for them was to have the books finished by next week.

Fri 3/4, I edited the 7th graders' summaries. They seemed to  have grammatical errors: run-on sentences and such. Their summaries also  seemed to miss out key important parts of the book and add in  superfluous details. I had them edit the summary again. I gave them  their first hw, making them finish the summary by next Wednesday. My  goal for them wass to be finished with all the paperwork stuff before my  spring break, March19-26, and get started shooting the video. For the  2nd graders I made them read the books quietly so they could catch up.

Mon 3/7, school was closed.

Wed 3/9: I did not see the 7th graders but saw the 2nd graders. I made them start the summary but with their slow typing it seems like it will take some time.

Fri 3/11: I had finals and an essay and did not go.

Mon 3/14: I had finals and did not go.

Wed 3/16: I spent the day organizing and cleanup up some left over computers in the basement. I tested them out to see if they worked. Most had some power supply issue or motherboard issue. Of the approx. 22 computers, we were able to salvage 6 working ones. The rest would be picked up and sent away. I told the kids before I left to be finished with the summary so we can start shooting the video after I come back from my break.

Fri 3/18: I left for my spring break and did not go.
