The Puppet show

1. What is your puppet show about? (5-8 sentences)



Our puppet show is about the exploration of Jacques Cartier.
There are 2 parts of the puppet show and all these are about Cartier's exploration in Canada.
The first part is about many sailors died because of the scurvy so Domagaya helped them with vitamin-c-spruce tea and needles to saved many lives.The second part is about the Cartier met Donnacona at the first time, Donnacona was very passionate to greet them. Cartier wanted to trade with him but Donnacona disagreed, so Cartier kidnapped his two sons.



2. Who are the characters? Which student is the voice of the character?



There are Jacques Cartier, Donnacona, Domagaya, Sailor, Narrator in our puppet show.
Helen Zheng is the voice of Jacques Cartier, Peter Meng is the voice of the Donnacona,
Catherine Wu is the voice of the Domagaya, Nancy Ju is the voice of the Sailor and Narrator1,
and Heaven Wen is the extra voice of the Narrator.




3. What did you learn from making the puppet show? (3-5 sentences)




We learned a lot from making this puppet show. At the begin, actually I didn't know about
this story at all but I learned a lot about him and lots of new words after making the puppet show. But the most important thing is I learned how to work well with group members, we had no enough time to working on the puppet show on everyday so all members were very tired and busy, we had to understand each other, then we worked pretty well. Anyway this project helped
a lot for learning about the European's exploration and for learning about the teamwork.




4. What do you want me to notice when I am marking your puppet show? (3-5 sentences)



Ms.Chan!
It was a pretty nice project, and I learned a lot from this project.
I wanted to work perfectly but it wasn't really easy to get perfect because
we got too less time to working on the puppet show (maybe it was enough time for others..),
some materials for making puppet show were too difficult to find for us , also it was very hard
to make the puppets for us..(it was pretty high level!)
Btw, this project was really nice and interesting! I learned so much from this, Thank you!





5. Did your group work well together? Tell me 3 reasons why or why not.


Our group members worked very well together, we divided and prepared the materials for the puppet show so we could made the puppets well. We drew the backgrounds for the puppet show
at my home on sunday even though all we were so busy and having other schedules.
some members were strong at the story, some members were strong at the drawing and some members were strong at the making the puppets , so we helped each other then finished the puppet show very well.



Bonus- Post a picture of your puppet show on your blog.
