Reflection on Digital Story
The person I had that overcame adversity was Mark Inglis. He definitely changed my perspectives and views on life and many other things. Mark showed me that you have to live life to the fullest, take every chance you get to do the things you love. He made me think about my own goals and dreams that I want to accomplish and I saw that he accomplished his, so if he could do it with a great disability then I can do too. It taught me that I need to be determined and driven, and if someone says “you can’t” or “it’s impossible” then you have to prove them wrong and show the world what your made of! He is a good motivation and influence to me.
While doing the digital story board I learned that you have to record your voice in different sections, so you can place your pictures with what you’re saying. Something I had trouble with was at the end it wouldn’t let me paste the whole citation cause they were to long so I used a print screen on the word document with all my citations and put it into paint and made it a jpeg, and inserted it as a picture at the end. It is better to write a script first because you need to know what you’re saying you can’t just wing it, also you don’t want to stutter while you’re trying to think about what you should say. The digital story bored is a good idea for almost any subject or anything where you’re trying to get a point across, give information, or to just entertain. For example you could use it in history for when you’re telling the story of Lewis and Clark.

Snack Foods
The food I had was Doritos and i was not surprised by the calories or serving size, because i always check my food labels. I try to stay away from these kind of foods because I know how bad they are for you, even though they might taste good.

On the date of October 10th, 1889 in Sagamore Hill in Oyster Bay, New York, at the Roosevelt residence Theodore’s son, Kermit was born. There has already been one other child in the house held, and there would be a few more to come. Kermit after attending Groton School attended Harvard in 1901. Being a freshman in college Kermit went to Africa on a Safari and then explored Europe, with his father Theodore. Three years later on November 5th, 1912 Election Day came about. The candidates were Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Taft. Woodrow Wilson won, and beat Theodore by 2.2 million votes. Taft was out of the question, he came in last place. Roosevelt knew he would lose but he was not used to it because he has always won everything. Almost a year after Election Day Theodore took his son Kermit, a small group of men, and a Brazilian explorer by the name of Colonel Candido Rondon on an expedition throughout the Brazilian jungle and on the River of Doubt. The trip only took one year before they came back in 1914, loosing men to disease, dangerous rapids, and Indian attacks. On August 22, 1917 when Kermit was 28 became the honorary captain in the British army. A year later on August 26, 1918 he was also awarded the military cross. Then that same year his youngest brother Quentin was shot. In 1925 Kermit and his other brother, Theodore Roosevelt II went to the Himalayas on a hunting trip. Then on July 4, 1943 Kermit commit suicide and shot himself.
