Magazine Cover Peer Review
Hannah's Blog
1. The name of the magazine I looked at is called "The Sibling" and Hannah Erington made it.
2. I like the photo she used for the cover of her magazine and how creative the theme of the magazine is.
3. To improve the cover I would add different color text so that it pops out more. I would probably add yellow or white like the boy's shirt.
4. I picked this cover because I like how creative the whole idea is. Also, the colors in the photo attracted my eyes.
5. Yes, there is a bar code on the left hand side.
6. Yes, the bar code made the cover more "magazine-like".
7. It's a portrait because she took a photo of someone else in a posed position.
Peer Review
Skyler's Blog
1. My favorite photo is the photo of the trees because I like how it's in black and white. I also think that it was very creative to take a picture of the branches for "connected".
2. My least favorite image is the photo of the table because it isn't as interesting as the other photos. However, I did like the angle she took the photo.
3. Overall I think that her pictures are great and they correspond to the prompt.
4. I think Skyler's photos are really good but can improve on getting out of her comfort zone and trying something different and new.
5. Skyler did the best portraying "connected" because it's unique.
6. Skyler didn't portray "eight" the best because it's very straight forward.

3. I think that Isis is the most important news of 2014. This news is the most important because of how serious it is. Also, I believe that we have to do something about it and make more people aware of it.
4. President Barack Obama is the most important person of 2014 for many reasons. He fives messages of hope, freedom, and opportunity. Mr. Obama has done a lot for our country this past year. He is doing a lot to try to make our country better. For example, he's trying to end the war in Iraq.
5. In my opinion, The World Cup was the biggest sports entertainment of 2014 because I enjoy watching it. Soccer is a very popular sport and I love watching all the action. Also, some of the "underdog" teams did very well in 2014 so it was very interesting too watch.
1. Something that I will remember from this winter break is my birthday party because I turned 15 and all my friend came. It was really fun!
2. Some of my new year resolutions are too not be too stressed out, be more on time, and always keep improving at dance.
