Do you understand how you will be graded? I will receive an MYP grade on my attitude and use of the design cycle, as well as an academic grade on my actual project. What MYP grade do you deserve for this section? I believe that I deserve a 5-6 for this section because I described all the details of the project requirements and how the project will be graded or evaluated.

Animation can be positive because we can do whatever we want with the animation without actually harming anyone.

(Write a paragraph!) We can be super heroes by helping others. We can help others by cheering them up if they are having a bad day. If someone seems lonely we could always be kind towards them and offer our friendship and high fives. One of the biggest ways we can help people in our school is to help them with concepts that they may not understand.
