In Design & Tech we are doing a Stop-Motion Project about villains and superheroes , and we must create a short movie about the villain or superhero you created. There has to be an enemy for your character, and a story-line to make it even more epic.We have to have partners so that we can create the movie and character together.

Now I know that I am not alone in bad situations, that I will have someone to help me at that time. I would identify Summer the most because I love the way that she didn't care about what her friends thought when she sat with the "Weird Kid", and I think I wouldn't care either if my ...

There are also different TYPES of poems, like a Colour Poem or a Concrete Poem . It's not like a paragraph of what something is, like a paragraph about cats. It's something that comes from the heart is very meaningful. Why Do People Write Poetry?  People write poetry because it's a way to express there feelings or maybe just trying to make someone also feel emotion. It's a way to write something in a meaningful way. Activities I Did In The ILT...  There were lots of activities to do, there was the Chorus-Verse that we had to do with Mrs.Van Tonder where we had to make a play with the words of a poem. There was terminology, where we had to find out what some of the words they gave us meant. There was Analysing Poems, where we had to write special types of poems. There was Black-Out Poetr...
