Ivo Ilic-3/10/10-Getting Tools to City Schools

Today’s visit was not a long one.  I waited in the school until 3:45 when we were supposed to meet Dennis in the library.  I was the first student there and I arrived just as Carin did.  Dennis was already there.  Before anyone else arrived Carin asked me to show Dennis the PSA I had been working on in class.  It is a gray-scale picture of two hands, one looking as if were holding a pencil over a quiz with no answers.  There is a yellow/orange strip along the bottom (The same color as the logo of Getting Tools to City Schools) with black lettering that reads “How can a child pass a test without a pencil?”.   Anyway Dennis seemed to like the PSA and we started to discuss if I used to little text when Jason showed up.  Dennis asked him to show us the paper he was writing for class about the project and then asked the same of me.  After we printed our papers one of us asked where everyone else was.  I went to look for our teacher to try and get the numbers of the rest of the group and Jason went to find Bryce who was at robotics to do the same.  I was unsuccessful but Jason got Bryce’s paper and told us how Bryce was unavailable.   We then spoke about ideas for both the poster Miral and I had to do for displaying at the school.  Dennis came up with the idea of attaching pictures to use as the bars of our graph to make it clearer.  We also talked about editing the footage Jason got from our last visit and its many uses.  I asked him to email me it and I expect it any moment now.  Next visit I hope to work on the chocolate wrappers for fund-raising as well as have the poster finished.  Please clink on the link in the post and become a fan of the organization on facebook.
