Emerson Presentations Day IV

Stephania: did a collage of quotes and says that if we take chances and listen to the heart we will gain experience. "Believe In Yourself" was the title of her poster and she picked these quotes based on liking and what spoke out to her. Fatima and Jordan: They did a CD collage. Talked about society being a wave and how you can expect it to go one way. Discusses greatness appealing to the future and left class with telling us that if we stay true to ourself and once we find that truth then we must stay strong. Leydi: made a video picking out her favorite quotes from the essay and would first have the quote appear and then next an explanation of what she thought the quote was saying. Alexis: Frank Ocean song played and exemplified how we shouldn't do drugs and if you follow that path then you'll become sluggish and thought of as stupid. So it's all fun and games in the beginning and you know it is not good for you to drink and smoke yet you still do it because at parties that is what the kids do. That is a no no and rather than following this wrong path we have to find a way to not follow trends and be yourself. Main message is that the crowd is what leads you into the wrong decisions. Angel: made a powerpoint and says not to follow the crowd or copy others. Elaborates on how you are the only person to make yourself happy. Cayla: Made a short video that showed a tornado and how that is like the eye of the storm. How the storm represents society and society therefore spins around and around like a tornado.  Main message is to not seek outside self. Linda: made a CD that she put songs onto one of which was "Man In the Mirror" which was said to delineate being and making that change in society.
