1. I divided my project up by having the main things I learned in the media piece and focused on

the type of literacy and what it meant to me in my written piece. The media piece was simpler,

but the work I’m doing is simple. Its main focus is to show what I do at the dog shelter. I feel

that my written piece really showed how the work I’m doing meant to me and how anyone

could find it beneficial and I feel like that information is more valuable for anyone looking at this

project so that should be taken into account for grading.

2. I want you to consider that I’m very involved in all the work. I go to the shelter every Friday

since the end of January and stay for two and a half hours. The project may not be extravagant

but what I do there is important. Volunteering at an animal shelter gives them a lot of extra help

that they need.

3. I want you to weigh most the written piece as it describes how much the work means to me

rather than the prezi that just teaches you what I do there

4. If I had more time I would like to make the media piece nicer. Maybe interview Mike Sims, the

shelter manager, on video and have him talk about volunteering and how much the shelter

relies on extra help.

5. I think this work deserves an A. I take the time every week to go to the shelter, I have far

exceeded the twelve hours and I enjoy doing the work when I go there. I’m very passionate

about dogs and my project shows my dedication to them. My written piece goes into detail

about and touches upon most of the bullet points listed in the syllabus.
