  1. Great job! This is a great tribute to Martin Luther King Jr. After all he did help stop segregation.

    1. Dear Sophia,
      I agree. I especially like the way Wordle makes our words stand out. Too bad they weren't more visible in the Animoto though. What made you think it was great?

  2. Dear Brian Pahl, I loved the Martin Luther King Jr. drawings, I also know that he was a man that stopped that darkness called segregation, and maybe this year or the next year, we can draw more famous people in art time.

    1. Hi Fiona,
      I liked the drawings, too. I am impressed with all of your art work this year. It's wonderful that you get to learn from Ms. Avera and Mrs. Heywood. Yes, Martin Luther King was a tremendous and brave human being. Luckily, he had many other women and men also working with him to end segregation. I hope you get to draw other famous people as well. Maybe you could ask Ms. Avera if that would be possible?

    2. Dear Mr. Pahl,
      He is important to me because he helped people with colored skin be in the same school. I have lots of more friends because of that.

  5. Dear Mr. Pahl & Mrs. Avera,
    Thank you for letting us make Worldles and Martin Luther King portraits. It was really fun. I love the new way Mrs. Avera taught us how to draw eyes.

  7. Dear Mr.Pahl,
    I like how you put the wordle and the Martin Luther King Jr. picture in the blog. Also I like how you did the design for the wordle and the Martin Luther King Jr. together in the same video. By the way the art and the wordle are awesome.
    Sincerely, Donna

  8. Dear Class,
    We all did a great job making these wordles and pictures about Martin Luther King. I think it is good that we honor Martin Luther King in a fun way and not just a super series one. Good job every one.

  9. Dear Mr.Pahl,
    I honestly feel that Dr.King was a inspirational man in our history. He should have not been shot,but there are some crazy people out there!

    Sincerely,

  11. Dear Mr. Pahl,
    I think that he would really be proud of us because we did what was right. Unlike when he was around when people were so mean! I am so happy that I am not there now. It was really cruel back then
    Sincerely,
    Avery

  12. Dear Mr. Pahl,
    I liked doing that project. I liked it because you can find cool backgrounds. Can we use Wordle more often?
