This past week I accomplished the following:
I re-wrote the rest of "Benefits of Dance" and re-wrote "Creative Movement: taking the values of professional dance to children" with arguments. I started "The implementation of Creative Dance in Schools: professional opinions" but am missing three interviews, I already wrote arguments for that.
The sources I consulted this week were:
My own text and some creative dance notes.
By next week I want to have accomplished:
THESIS is DUE. aaaah!
Finish interviews. Re-write "Creative Dance in Washington Elementary Schools" and "The Arts: An Economic Force in the Community." Write Conclusion.
Start missing annotated bibs.
What obstacles stand in the way?
TIME
What steps can I take to move forward?
Use every free moment I have to finish this and my other classes' work.
In this week's seminar I want to discuss:
Nothing. Listen to final projects.

Prep Sheet 10-11
This past two weeks I accomplished the following:
I re-wrote my introduction and the first part of Benefits of Dance. I also found a structure in my work! So, there is kind of a table of contents now.
The sources I consulted this week were:
No sources these past two weeks, but I think there are areas to be further researched.
By next week I want to have accomplished:
I want to finish re-writing Benefits of Dance. Last week I didn't finish re-writing the economy section, because when I read the benefits of dance, I saw that there were economic paragraphs randomly inserted throughout so I decided to follow the order of my paper instead of jumping in between sections.
What obstacles stand in the way?
None, I think last week I was mostly scared about getting rid of paragraphs. Now, that I've re-read and re-written it is easier to find what works in each section and what doesn't. I am also given a second opportunity to analyze what I wrote by re-writing. It's really cool because before I wrote in a way trying to find vocabulary for what I wanted to say, and now I know more so I can edit things too.
What steps can I take to move forward?
Keep writing and highlighting the text with Chris's feedback. I found out that I like to write and read with color to keep myself motivated, organized and focused. I look forward to it more if there's color. Isn't that weird?
In this week's seminar I want to discuss:
I'm doing well, I just need the time to keep writing.

Prep Sheet 9
This past week, I accomplished the following:
I started A Study of Creative Movement in Elementary Schools with an argument. But I still have to polish this section and make it blend well (arguments and facts).
The sources I consulted this week are:
I didn't consul any sources this week. I've stuck to my text.
By next week, I want to have accomplished:
I want to have finished re-writing The Arts: An Economic force in the Community and start on the Benefits of Dance.
What obstacles stand in the way of progress?
I have issues re-writing with arguments. Sometimes things that I wrote don't make sense to me at all. AND it's taking me so much time to see each paragraph and think that its not meaningful.
What steps can I take to move forward?
Take my computer to the theater and write. Thanksgiving week will be awesome, because I'll be in Mexico the whole week and will have tons of time.
I need to look at a clean page, because trying to fix my text in the same page gives me a headache.
In this week's seminar, I want to discuss:
I'm good right now, I just have to keep getting into my text.

Prep Sheet 7-8
This past week, I accomplished the following:
I have started going over Chris' notes on A Study of Creative Movement in Elementary Schools.
I also researched who I would be writing to, so that I could get a better idea of how to re-write my paper as an argument.
The sources I consulted this week are:
I didn't consul any sources this week. I've stuck to my text.
By next week, I want to have accomplished:
I want to have finished re-writing A Study of Creative Movement in Elementary Schools and start going over The Arts: An Economic force in the Community.
What obstacles stand in the way of progress?
I have little time this week, but that section isn't too big. So I know I'll be able to finish and hopefully I'll be further along the next section because tech for CDT is next week and I'll be at the theater most of the time.
What steps can I take to move forward?
Going paragraph by paragraph. Taking it step by step.
