project #3 ; blog's 1 & 2

so i was originally planning to have this type of amazing race activity project, but as i tried to fit it in my schedule, it just didn't work out. And after the long and hard work i put in for the bowling event, i didn't think it was worth going all out again.

While i was having my thoughts on this race project, Jared S. asked me to help him on a project that had to do with hip-hop. I agreed, and then a second later, he came back and asked me if i wanted to help lead the project since he didn't know much about hip-hop. once again, i gladly agree.

We've decided to have the first hip-hop freestyle battle! (yippyyyy!) there are always a group of freshman boys who are always dancing at lunch, and i knew that they would be interested in participating. After all, every dancer wants attention for their skills every once in a while. to be noticed is great and it boosts their confidence.

Jared and i had only one day of sign ups, and it was very successful! I have a total of 7 students who signed up and i'm super pumped to start making a play list for it!

We do not have or need a mentor for this project. This is student based and teachers aren't needed, although, there are always staff in the cafeteria. this is going to happen during school grounds, on December the 16th, during lunch. students will draw from a hat filled with song titles, and that will be their song that they will have to freestyle too. Jared and I will grade them on their originality, skill and swag. We will also be looking for someone who is able to make up something fun to watch on the spot. there will be a winner, although a prize is not yet discussed.

milestone dates : as far as the dates go, Jared and I have been planning this project for about two weeks. within those two weeks, we've been making posters and thinking about songs that would be good for dancing too.

accomplishments :
  • we've gotten seven people to sign up, which is more than enough.
  • We got signs all over the school.
  • we have several song choices
