Day 12 & 13

• Interview with Ms. Battioni
• ready to print out the poster
• go to Ms. Chen
• put posters around

On Day 12, we finally had an interview with Ms. Battioni, the humanities teacher of grade 8, about the aurasma project. We went over our questions for teachers, and firstly asked her for a general explanation about the aurasma project. She replied, that currently her class is working on making an aurasma that incorporates Animal Farm by George Orwell. She added some explanation about that story: Animal Farm is an allegory, extended symbol parallel story, which talks about the Russian Revolution. Since every characters in the story represents an important role in the Russian Revolution -- such as Napoleon to Stalin, Boxer to the worker class -- she requested every student to analyze a chosen character. The analysis should include overall summary about the character itself, how it contributes a role in the story, and a description about the connection between the animal with the actual character in the history. However, since her class was not completely finished with the aurasma project, we asked her if she can answer the rest of the questions, which are generally about the student who showed his or her creativity in the project, and she accepted. 

On Day 13, we finished our poster about the first group, about Avivi and Donald's art work. However, because we worked the poster by using Piktochart website that has many problems about printing, we decided to ask help to Ms. Chen. She once have helped the students to print a big poster. Consequently, we were able to print out 6 copies of the poster, and we sticked 2 per floor, except the first floor. Now, we completely finished our first project.
